[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The school  has to come up with their own assessments for Chinese.  It causes problems.  Last year, there were a bunch of kids in 1st grade stuck at level "c" in Chinese bc the standard they were using according the school was too difficult.

So this yr for second, they came up with another standard:  the current independent reading benchmark is "b" for Chinese whatever that means.

These assessments are essentially meaningless.  It's best to ask the Chinese teacher whether your child is where they should be in reading and writing.  Some teachers are more forthcoming than others.[/quote]

This is the bubble class though, right?  Aren't they the hardest class since the first one?  Yet, the ones after them are better?

It is almost an argument against expansion.

It's the bubble but the school has been in existence since sept 2008 when the future bubble class was 1 yrs old with plenty of time to come up with a Chinese assessment that works.  Also, not sure why some of you keep saying they are the "hardest", they are the largest class and that's it.  This was first class where prek was 100% Mandarin.[/quote]
