[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is five and a rising kindergartener. Up to now, she's been in a play based environment. It became clear to me today that not only does she not know all her letter sounds, but she also can't tell what sounds a word starts with. For example, she couldnt match pictures that showed animals starting with the same sound. She couldnt do it on her own and she still had difficulty when I repeated the words for her emphasizing the beginning sound. Is this normal given that she's never really had formal instruction, or a sign of a problem?[/quote] The only problem that I see is that you have just realized this. If you stay this disconnected to your child's education, she may fall behind. View this as a wake up call and get involved.[/quote] Oh puh-lease. Play is education at this age. You need some perspective.[/quote]
