[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in a similar situation with a late Sept boy who wasn't ready for K. We chose to do 2 years of PreK instead of 2 years of K. I feel like Pre-K is the year that they learn the most in. There's physical activity, arts and crafts and a lot of social work. K is more just academic work and sitting still. You know how they say "everything you needed to know in life you learned in Kindergarten"? Well it's really prek now as Kindergarten is now academic and less focused on sharing, hand skills and such. I really, really think play based is important and 3+ hours outside a day versus the 30 min in elementary school.[/quote] But she's not really talking about two years of K. She's talking about completing the montessori primary cycle, and then going to traditional K.[/quote]
