[quote=Anonymous]My DD who has consistently scored in the 99% in reading iReady in first and beyond didn't know how to read at this point before kindergarten. She put it together somewhat over the summer but that was not the norm. I sympathize, OP. I have a rising K who has a serious speech issue (it is more than a delay, it's a diagnosed language disorder) and I really worry about reading. But he is actually doing great learning letters with specific instruction from SPED preschool. Your kiddo doesn't sound behind to me. You mention other parents - are you saying that parents of your child's peers are expressing concern about her readiness for kindergarten? If so, those people need to buzz off - it is absolutely none of their business. I am always pleasantly surprised by how accepting kids are of my DS. Of course some aren't but by and large kids that age are pretty accepting and are way more open to and aware of differences than I remember being at that age. I credit inclusion SPED for a lot of that. [/quote]
