PM me on the facebook page, and I will help you. Go to The Parent Teacher Bridge.

I think you're under 18....or you were when you used IXL. Someone abused the use of it with you. I'm so sorry. It's like Accelerated Reader. There can be some good things about it, but the schools have not used it effectively and it's turned kids off.

I believe I said in the video she is probably advanced for that time.

It says around minute 2 that this is a first grade passage and that there are multiple sub-levels within first grade because kids grow so much.

Top right corner says it's level E

@@TheParentTeacherBridge ok I understand that! the resources you shared are definitely helpful! seems my son is at level B

I'm so sorry to hear that. It is true they do NOT let parents know this soon enough. Most children are capable of doing those things IF the parents know in advance. If the parents trust they will learn letters and sounds DURING kindergarten...then it gives them a late start. It would have to be a public campaign or something they advertise at the pediatrician's office so that parents know. I do not rely on the government for my children's education. My children joyfully learned to read without pressure. Public schools are set up like factories, and if you do research the history behind them, the big guys that owned the factories and had a stake in them heavily supported the idea of public schools as we know them because they needed factory workers. I urge you to look into homeschooling, a method that will fit your family (there are different ways depending on parent schedules)

They're supposed to know the basics before kindergarten. Counting to 20, shapes, colors, days of the week, reading, etc. You or your preschool failed your child, not the kindergarten.

No she did not song she just needs to go through it again because she's not ready and that's okay make sure she knows it's okay and sometimes people need a little more time

I am so sorry! Thats so sad! One of the true tragedys of this nation and out education dept! one of the reasons we are so far down on the education in the world! So many kids lose that zest for learning because its so hard that young all day to it and try and focus and remember everything! Then learn all the new information! Do you know Finland ( not sure if they still are) were top 3 in education! Because even though yes kids did start school around 5ish but not like our schools they played and learned how to get the social aspect down and learned through play and sclience like watching butterflies and learning about dirt by digging and things like that formal learning didnt start till age 7! And alot of Eureapeon countries like Germany dont even start any history classes till 6th grade! my kids started k=getting so bored! Learning the same thing in elementary! Try and be encouraging and find ways to make it fun and something she can enjoy! Good luck!

Send me an email rebecca@theparentteacherbridge.com and I will get it to you. :)

@@misscabbydahir.GodsDaughter I’m so sorry to hear this. For the addiction reason (and also to avoid ideologies and porn) my 15 year old does not have his own phone. When he gets access to one, it won’t be his. It will be ours that he is borrowing for an event. I do not think much good comes from them. You are the parent and reserve the right to ground her from the phone if needed. Accept that role. It will be tough--oh, yes, tough!! But, if she can do better then you need to show her that you believe in her and free her from that addiction.

Hi! I apologize. I don't currently have a website. Here is a playlist that will have everything you need if you have a little one. th-cam.com/play/PLS3dNM_dk55ufYbJJg6PUz9xvirnGThyg.html&si=-kDqFY2c8gMu9IFO

What's your email address? I can try to get that to you.

@@TheParentTeacherBridge Thank You!!!

Jo

You're welcome.

Great idea! I think I was on the academic mindset when I made this.

Let me know what you need, and I can try to get it to you. Otherwise, yes, I know.

@@TheParentTeacherBridge I was trying to get the rhyming game with the pictures you put on the rhyming or not rhyming column

@@chadthomas09 What's your email?

You'll have to remind me what part you're talking about. It's been a while since I made this, and I can't sit and watch the entire thing to find the part to which you're referring. Thanks.

You are welcome!

Actually, that's not a bad idea. My first teaching job was fifth grade math. Guess what? My own fluency in math facts improved!

Great! Feel free to ask me anything. I need to get back to doing videos.

Eh. Fast Forward works just fine. Connect me to all the videos you have done perfectly. :)

​@@TheParentTeacherBridge You don't take constructive criticism very well do you? Surely you realize that a 17 minute video is not easy to watch when you have 6-year-olds running around. Please don't get me wrong, I really appreciate your attempt, however a nice tight informative package is definitely super helpful.

@@SamSolasdonSaol How many 6 year olds do you have, and how can I help? :)

Yes. How can I help? What do you need? Message me back with your email.

What do you mean? Can you please explain? Can you also please explain what you are looking for?

@@alexgibb8406 Ok. I'm still trying to understand. The "she" in "she thinks" is referring to whom? As far as the story, it is a "first grade level story." That being said, she was fluent and somewhat advanced. I probably said that somewhere in the video. I'd have to rewatch. Levels are arbitrary. It's a comparison of data with a bunch of children. Someone picked it at some point and said, "That's first grade. That's second grade," and so on.

Minute 1:48 I actually state that she is a very good reader.

Why not break it into quarters of proficiency.

As people visiting here will also have different levels of the same journey

Well, unless he's going to be a football player for a living, I'd say he needs more time to do science and math. Have him interview someone who is a pilot so he can have them tell him he needs to work harder. If the school isn't teaching him well there may be online courses. . .

You're welcome!

I wish. Most of the hate comments are usually kids that come here to comment. :)

I understand. It's good to know life is unpredictable. My oldest is now ending middle school grades and will be officially in high school next year. Because of homeschooling, we were able to use several classes for high school credit in 8th grade. The flexibility and customizable curriculum is extremely beneficial. Find a homeschool community!

Hi! Let me know how I can help you. I'm still available. However, I took a hiatus from my website since it wasn't bringing in the money we needed. :)
