No, I didn't think you were saying he was lying, and I know what you mean - as in last year, in a meeting with his teacher about writing, she said we don't write all day long - just the journal. And when I mentioned that he complained that every discussion whether in math or reading was followed by a workbook, she looked stunned, and said, oh, I hadn't thought of that! I think that his current teachers rightly expect the kids to read along with the computer generated highlighted text, but he prefers to watch the animations while listening to the stories (and I don't blame him, they're great!). And the teachers are trying to instill a love of books in the children (which is certainly not necessary in Mr. Another Book/Another Chapter, PLEASE?). I suppose I could mention that to his teacher, but why destroy his fun. We'll make up for it outside of school. I don't want to be the one to take the computer away from him - and the basic phonics help when he gets it is good for him.
as for verbal, we're going in with 148, 149 (with a 157 on comprehension). His writing scores certainly weren't overinflated - LOL!
