OK . . . this post doesn't require a reply. I just need a place to put this out into the universe. . .
DD9 who is very frustrated with her language arts is in the "top" reading group. They have spent the last EIGHT weeks reading one novel and they still haven't finished it! Eight weeks. Eight weeks on a book that she read more than a year ago on her own and finished in a couple of hours. 140 pages with pictures.
They are giving her extensions and to be fair they don't work on it every day, but still . . . EIGHT weeks. Three more chapters to go!
Shudder . . . Band head against wall . . . repeat.
