[quote=Anonymous]It's actually the schools with high SES that seem to cap reading levels, arguing that otherwise a huge percentage of kids will be stuck at 16 for a year or even two because of the writing requirement after that level. We've heard of at least one school where they have this same philosophy but start the writing requirement at a much lower level so that the kids move up as their writing catches up to their reading.. Have mixed feelings about this. [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say you are lucky they go that high - a lot of the kindergarten classes at the local schools cap the students at level 6/D.[/quote] Source? I teach K at a Title I school, and we have reading groups currently in the 12-16 range. I have extreme doubts that a school could "cap" reading groups at grade level.[/quote][/quote]
