[quote=Anonymous]And (PP again) what is the frickin' point of all this frickin' test data if you will not let me remediate according to the test data?? And how can I bring a child up to speed if you will not provide money for extra instruction? NO, 15 minutes a day of small group instruction is NOT enough time to bring a 4th grader up to grade level in reading. These kids need an hour or more a day, for several months at least, of direct, one to one instruction in basic phonics and decoding skills and work on developing sight words and reading fluency. No they are probably not learning disabled. They just need direct instruction in the foundations of reading. If their parents could they would hire a skilled tutor and just get it done because as a school district we don't seem to be able to do it.[/quote]
