News to me. My son told me he doesn't read at school, except for a couple/few times a week in guided reading. He has the daily choice to read to himself or watch a book with animations, sound effects and narration on the computer. Guess which he chooses? This isn't the norm for public school, is it? Their math is at least a year behind where he left off last year, and I just signed him up for a JHU CTY distance learning math course. Now I find out about the reading. Not much I can do about it - the district doesn't provide gifted services in second grade. So I guess I'll just become an unofficial home schooler!
