[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son could fluently read before entering kindergarten and his teacher did not do reading groups for him. She only worked with the kids who couldn't yet read. He got ignored and did worksheets way below his level. I think a lot of schools don't give kids any accelerated work if they can read because it is so much easier to do nothing with the kids that can read until the other kids catch up at the end of first grade or second grade. He is in first grade and I am still waiting for him to get any work on his level. At the beginning of the year there weren't any chapter books available to read in his class because the teacher told me that wouldn't be fair for the kids who couldn't read them. She only had books at or below a first grade level. [/quote] That teacher should not be teaching -- because she isn't.[/quote]
