[quote=Anonymous]I'm a teacher, and any teacher who gives a reason for doing things a certain way, "It's for the standardized test," sucks, unless it's literally practice for the test. There's test preparation and then there's real learning and inspired teaching -- intelligent teachers know the difference. This sounds dead-on like a bored 2nd grader being taught by an unimaginative, worksheet-style type of teacher. Don't let people diagnose her with anything unless and until she's at least had time in a productive, differentiated learning environment. Most behavior and learning problems can be solved by engaging the child differently and in a more effective way. I hope you can get her moved. Good luck. [/quote]
