Reidun had been a teacher for a long time — I knew this because she'd once taught my mother.
Our teacher stayed with us every year, a practice called 'looping'Reidun — as with all our teachers, we called her by her first name — was our "klasseforstander" or class principal.
In third grade, we got a new teacher who taught us English one word at a time.
Having your teacher follow you as you move through school is called "looping."
Looping has been proven to help struggling studentsLooping is especially beneficial for students who struggle academically.
