[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading level went down because of the book selection at school?  I find that hard to believe.

Were there no challenging books available at home, in the library or at the community library?[/quote]

I wonder what the principal said about the book selection in the classroom.[/quote]

In that kid's case there is plenty of challenge at home.  The kid's brother is at TJ.  Kids could bring books from home and read by themeselves for the entire period.  I think the child just became apathetic about reading because there was no incentive to do so.  Only the kids with reading issues were routinely engaged with a teacher.  The child is at a center this year and reportedly more engaged again.

Walking home the other day, another parent was lamenting a report from her child about having 2 hours of read alone time regularly this year.  The parent asked if it was the same in my DC's classroom.  I was not aware of such long blocks for that, but now I feel compelled to follow up and investigate this further.[/quote]
