[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Again, how does a parent of an average kid decide if their child is learning enough when they perform at grade level? Is that not good enough? Your child is not the norm. [/quote] Omg, seriously! "Grade level" is a guideline, you can think of it as an average, or maybe even a floor that needs to be met so the children stay on track for appropriate development. Just because a child is performing at grade level doesn't mean they -- understand the concepts well so that they can continue to build on them -- wouldn't benefit from more/different support or stimulation There is virtually no child who is *exactly* at the grade level every day, every year. You meet your kid where they are and nourish their development, whatever that looks like... [/quote]
