[quote=Anonymous]My kid is the same age. He went from a daycare center where his July BD made him one of the oldest kids in the class to a full day private preschool where the kids are on the school calendar and he’s one of the youngest kids in his class.

His old daycare buddies all write their names and sometimes names of parents and siblings. They will turn 4 this fall. Their program drills them daily and there is lots of writing practice. It is one of the reasons we left.

My son was the last to turn 4 in his current 3’s class. About half of them write their name or draw things you can recognize. They do a lot of outdoor and creative play. He will leaned to write in time for school and I am not worried. We originally worried about the lack of academic focus, but talking to a few teachers, we decided to trust the preschool. The teachers told us that the school we picked is known for preparing well rounded, kind kids.

I prefer my son to get used to being the youngest because he will be the youngest all through school and college. He’s too bright to red shirt. [/quote]
