Have they done STAR testing? That is what they test reading levels with here. Honestly, the San Diego Quick doesn't look all that accurate to me either. Until they get him into an appropriate group, maybe you could just keep giving him the books he is enjoying. As my DS10 has gotten older I've realized how much more important it is for them to enjoy reading regardless of what level they are reading on. My DS likes to read books below where he should be but he is enjoying them so much I don't want to stop him and force something else on him just because it is "on his level". kwim??? So if your DS has found books he enjoys, I'd say just keep on with that. It sounds like you're doing a great job finding what he likes! smile
