>>53531275>>53531289I could read at a high level in kindergarten in the shitty public school I was in at the time, so they attempted to reward me by putting me into the school's "reading club" which was actually like a remedial class for the dyslexic middle-schoolers who struggled to read at like first- or second-grade level. IDK if my teacher intended to do some sort of gifted thing and assumed "reading club" was positive, or if someone else in charge fucked up somewhere and assumed it must be a sped thing, or if they were really shitty and assumed a kindergartner who reads well is at about the same reading level as an eighth-grader who reads poorly, or what. I mean these kids really couldn't read.
I literally just sat there scribbling on paper to fill up time because there was nothing else to do or read, as I listened to teenagers read badly for like half an hour or so every week (?) until eventually they realized I wasn't supposed to be in there I guess (there were literally no other students anywhere close to my age in that class, which makes sense because you have to be a bit older than 5 for people to realize you're a shitty reader). So then I stopped going and I just continued to read in kindergarten the same as I'd been doing before.
I still don't really get what the fuck that was all about. The school sucked and I ended up going to a different one that was actually decent education-wise about a year later.
