[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just saw my kids' K report card. Honestly, it doesn't provide much info. I don't know what a 4 means, I don't understand how the standards are aligned to specific learning outcomes, and I wish there was something more akin to the K screen where the child is asked to do specific tasks.

Apparently, my kid can read fluently. I don't buy it but I do think she's getting more confident in reading.

I am much more curious about the next round of I-ready. [/quote]

We got the winter iReady results.  What am I supposed to get out of that?  I don't feel much differently about those results than I do the K report card ;)[/quote]

OP here - we haven’t gotten any iReady results this school year but I know DS has taken them 2x. He has also done what I assume (by his description of the oral assessment) is the DRA twice. Anyone else’s school not give these scores out?

Between the strange report card ratings and no test scores, I feel I know very little about how he is doing.  The teacher comments were mostly positive but not exactly specific.[/quote]

I'm the PP you're quoting. For my Ker, we did not get iReady results in the fall, but we did get them in the winter and it had both fall and winter results on the sheet. For my 3rd grader I only got the fall iReady results at the Nov. teacher conference and nothing for winter yet.

I hear the report card is supposed to mimic the upper grade GPAs - A = 4, B = 3, etc. [/quote]

NP - Thanks for this. My DD got a 2 for reading with fluency and accuracy. Does this mean she got the equivalent of a C? This seems odd to me bc I didn’t think it was the expectation that K kids are reading fluently by mid-year.  She does read and recognize some sight words.

This is confusing. I wish teachers went home some kind of letter with these reports![/quote]
