Grrrr. DD told me today that her class TA wrote for her in her writing assessment.
There is nothing wrong with her ability to write. She just can't spell. At all. I mean her writing is absolutely unreadable.
But now they are not assessing her ability to write - they're assessing her ability to speak! And then no doubt they'll tell me she's done really well in her assessment and made loads of progress this year.
If her writing is unreadable surely it's only fair that she stays at a level 1c.
I am not happy. They need to teach her to write not pretend that it doesn't matter and pretend she's making progress.
