I have been teaching for 6 years. My first year I was told I needed to

Hello Eveyone,
My name is Caitlin and I am a graduate student in New York with dozens of
questions about teaching! My only experience so far has been, subbing
Kindergarten, Second grade, and a teacher's assistant at a local art center.
My question is how do you address the problem of literacy wit

below grade level.

Hi
I think that the first question you have to get an answer for, Angela, is
what is the purpose for taking running records? Are you finding appropriate
reading levels for instruction? If your school is using it in a formative
way, then it doesn't really matter what leveling system is being

Our district assessment committee looked at all the available running

aware of what their level was, worked with the teacher l
