[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Way, way, WAY too much reading for a first grade math test. Most kids are still JUST figuring out 1 plus 1. And many aren't reading remotely at that level comprehensively. They require too much abstraction for concrete thinkers. It's like telling an infant to get up and start running. [b] There are many educators saying the K through 3rd grade standards are completely developmentally inappropriate. [/quote][/b] I am one of them. The first grade teacher came down the hall to my room to have me read a math question on the latest test. We both had to sit there and think about what they were actually asking. Ridiculous! [/quote]
