[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]August isn't too bad. If it was mid to late September I would say MAYBE hold back. I'm a late September kid, 28th to be exact and I remember it being a little hard when I was in kinder and 1st grade but by 4th/5th grade everything felt pretty even. I feel like kids eventually all catch up to each other.

But go with what feels right for you and your family. [/quote]

Unless you’re under ten, your kindergarten was nothing like today’s K.

If you are even wondering, hold them back. [/quote]

Agree.
But, your idea of reevaluating next year after a year is a good one.  From what you said about your twins, it sounds like a good idea.  However, they ARE still 4 and they should not be expected to be settled in at this point.  A lot can change in a year.

I taught K and 1.  If I were you, I'd err on the side of taking it slow.  There are exceptions to every rule, but if it's not clear, hold them back.  They will only be a month older than the others next year.  And, twins adds a whole different dynamic.
Were they premature?  If so, you can look at it that way.[/quote]
