Teachers don't particularly teach as they are suppose to. Our child never read a book all year unless we made her at homeHad trouble reading, Spelling, and completing work yet teacher never addressed any of this. She just told my child she was dealing with her. She had enough students to handle. I think it's unfair. My daughter was passed to move on to the next grade yet... Report card stated she showed below grade level in math and reading! How is this possum?!
