[quote=Anonymous]11:38, you are lucky and certainly NOT the norm from what I know about the kinderg. in our FCPS (and other FCPSs). My child (who was on the very young side when he started) was bored pretty much all the time. S/he learned to read b/c of an older sibling doing reading homework. Child who just finished kinderg. actually doesn't like school b/c it's "boring." Child is able to read at DRA level 16-18 b/c of what was learned at home. The amount of time spent at "centers" seems wasted. The only noticeable thing that child learned in kindergarten was to write strings of letters to form words/sentences about a topic. That's important, but after seeing my kids go through public school in the lower grades, I can totally see why home schoolers can get everything done in 3-4 hours... the rest of the day in public school is fluffy.[/quote]
