Dd had a reading assessment yesterday and as expected she's taken a leap. She's reading the books that come home without a stumble and managing a 200 odd word book in one sitting. The teacher says she's going to keep her books the same until concentration improves. I understand her level of decoding and comprehension has soared. I don't really mind, but I have noticed at home that dd's concentration improves when the books are at the right level of interest, story and word wise. So makes me wonder if it's a chicken and egg situation where maybe concentration will improve when the books get trickier. What do other parents and maybe teachers think?
