No More Status Quo

When you're too smart for your own good so your parents and teacher come up with a plan to trick you into doing more than status quo...turns out Carli rediscovered her love of reading.

In the 4th Grade, each kid has a 9 Week AR Goals. When Carli knew her goal, she would space out her reading and read just enough to achieve the goal. Basically she flew under the radar. Keith and I knew she could do more but b/c she could she did. So a simple Parent/Teacher Conference and request to keep her in the dark about her point goal has her fretting that she won't have enough points! The 9 weeks isn't over until first of March and her AR Goal is actually only 30 points...so she's proving our point that she can do more if/when she is motivated.
