Rachel announced yesterday that her class was given some sort of reading test -- basically, each kid had to look at words flashed on a computer and say the words aloud (no need to give an explanation, just say what the word was), and there were different levels of words that the kids got.
Rachel told us she successfully pronounced words that were listed on the EIGHTH-GRADE list. So, theoretically, she is reading on an eighth-grad level!
She said her friend Simone told her she had gotten words on a 10-grade level, but Rachel believes that's impossible because the list only goes up to eighth grade.
Regardless...wow. We told her over and over again how proud we are of her. She seemed pleased. I am really looking forward to our back-to-school conference with her teacher, Ms. Burke, in two weeks!
