Ellin, I echo Joy's sentiments! I would add what my kids say when the light bulb goes on, "I get it now". We all get it now...teachers, parents and kids. Isn't that what it's all about! I used to get lots of parents tell me that their kids were great readers but they were merely word callers. Just last week I had a parent vounteer (whose kid could fit in that category) tell me after working with her own child at home tell me that her daughter had no clue what she had just read and that they had to go back and determine which parts of the chapter were the most important so she could get the big idea. Times are a changing!
