[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not in this area, but my K kid told me that she doesn't have to use Lexia because it's not for her reading level. She uses Raz Kids at that time instead. Does that mean anything? Her teacher did say something I can't quite recall about not enough licenses for it. My kid seems to be picking up reading relatively easily thus far. [/quote] They have students stop after they reach their grade level target (or one above) [/quote] Not in my child's K class. My child is on level 13, which is 3rd grade.[/quote] Yikes…getting to level 13 in kindergarten is a lot of screen time. (Particularly if they are only doing it in school.)[/quote] If a kid is a good reader and already knows the subject matter, they will (a) be initially placed into a high level and (b) sail through the levels. My kid started out a 6 and is already an 11 and they're only on it maybe 15 minutes a day.[/quote] Well then I humbly revoke my yikes. I had no idea. My child keeps complaining that they “know this already,” so perhaps they just are bad test takers and started at a lower level? (Repetition is good, but they get bummed when so and so is already in Paris and they are not there yet.) To answer the original question—I’m a fan of Lexia and the progress reports it can generate.
