[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My first grader gets targeted intervention in school, every first and second grader us getting either targeted enrichment or interventions. Her reading is a bit behind (I think she's a level 6?) But her math and writing are very strong. One of her Christmas presents to her teacher was writing a letter to her teacher explaining why she liked her so much. [/quote]

My first grader is maybe reading at 10 which is likely much lower than they'd be if there hadn't been DL. I'm no reading teacher, but I also tried to work them for 30 minutes a day throughout the pandemic and over the summer. [/quote]

That's called parenting which is something you should be doing with your child all of the time. Who are the students who are behind? Mostly ones with checked-out parents.[/quote]

That's my take as well. All the parents complaining about gaps are the same ones who did nothing but complain during DL and never did anything for their kids.[/quote]

How can you say this? My kids don’t have gaps in learning because the one who stayed in school is just crazy advanced and I pulled the other out to homeschool, but I am not going to assume that the parents of kids who are stating that there are gaps are just all bad parents.

And yay for second graders who are reading thanks to their parents. But what about kids in upper grade levels? Are their parents supposed to tutor them in Shakespeare, biology, algebra 2, writing poetry explications, Spanish, and economics? [/quote]
