I hope she gets the same teacher next year, Bluemagic. The current system her school is using is combining the grades and then moving individual groups from teacher to teacher based on their reading or math level. So, for example, there are 1-3rd graders in DD class right now, and the other 2 teachers have 1-2 and 2-3 respectively. Her current teacher has the high reading and math groups and then the other 2 teachers get the lower and middle groups. My only concern is that DD told the reading tutor the other day that she didn't need to provide more details in her writing next year, "because I will have the same teacher and she knows I have dyslexia"...Grrr! smirk And after all the talks we've had about not using it as an excuse...looks like there's another talk coming up.
