Thanks for the replies. I guess the question in my mind is whether the report card should reflect what my child is capable of or what's expected of a normal 3rd grader. I've always thought it was the latter, but then differentiation makes things more complicated, doesn't it?
Now that we're a few weeks into the school year, I can see that it's not likely going to be a big issue for us. DS is still not overly challenged in any of the subjects, although it is a vast improvement from last year and I'm still hopeful to see more differentiation.
I will begin pulling large chunks of hair out of my head, though, if he brings home another set of graded papers this week that are only partially complete and therefore get a D or F. Can someone please explain to me how a kid can "not see" half a page of questions?
