Jepi,
I saw the same thing for the past 2 years with my daughter. She took AP
English her 9th and 10th grade year and had a very difficult time. Her teacher
expected her to read the text and analyze it...it was very difficult for her
and
she didn't do as well as she wanted. She has ALWAYS been an "A" student in
advanced classes...but, when she hit high school...well, let's say she had to
work. My asst principal said to me yesterday, that a 2nd grade teacher said
that she had never had a group of kids which could read and think through
their reading like the first grade group we sent them this year. I went to 3rd
this year and my class cannot think through their text. I am starting from the
beginning. But, now I realize the pay off for he children.
