Many Ohio 3rd Graders Face Retention

This article is somewhat controversial.  Some districts are adopting the same approach - Pass the 3rd grade reading test or face retention.  I posted an article the other day that challenged the prevailing wisdom of K-3 being the years studentts learn to read and 4th grade begins the reading to learn process.  After reading both posts, reflect on your thinking and share with your colleagues.
