Case: New Student with Unsupportive Parents
I have a student in my classroom that has enrolled in public school for the first time this year as a third grader. Previously, he was homeshooled. I noticed quickly that he had a difficult time reading and calling basic site words. After performing a reading assessment on him, I realized he was on a first grade reading level. After bringing his parents in to discuss his progress, I asked their permission to begin the RTI process on their child to start inventions in reading. They were against the idea and said their son could read just fine and I was the first person to ever comment on his reading ability. They did not want him to get any more support because they did not believe he had a problem, even after showing them his responses to the testing information. How can I make them see that he needs help and is struggling in all subject areas because he has difficulty reading?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You may want to compare their child to an average third grade student so that the parents can see the difference. For example, I would record an average reader in your class or find a recording on the Internet. I would then have their child read a passage and answer questions so that the parents can see the difference in their child's progress and other students. If this does not work, I would get the counselor involved and have a meeting with the parents to explain how the child's grades and progress could affect him in the future if the issues are not addressed now. |

Comments: Comparing to other third grade students is a great idea, its physical proof that he is at a lower level than the others. I would do this if I were in this situation. |
