So Nellie was home schooled for 8 years from grade 1 to 14 years old. She was a great reader all those years. Recently our kids decided to go to school and, of course, we show the school what the kids have been working on. A few weeks into it I go and have a parent/teacher meeting. Nellie’s reading books were so basic it was shocking. I ask about it but was told this was her shown/tested reading level. I provided some further examples of reading material she has accomplished and a few weeks later I am told how she was reading to the whole class – on the mic no less. While she was working on the laptop and asked a teacher what something read, the teacher said “err not sure Nellie you tell me” and just played along…. Low and behold there she was reading. This information spread among the staff and next thing you know she is reading aloud in front of everyone.
No my girl is not easy; she will not make anything easy for you. She just doesn’t really give a shit about much, well Zac Effron is pretty special to her……, but showing people she can read? Mmmppphhh she just doesn’t care!!!!!!
