[quote=Anonymous]1970s. My brother was in third grade and couldn't read. Teachers brought it up at a parent teacher conference with concern. So in the 70s, 3rd grade was late. (BTW, my brother learned soon after, went on to an IVY lawschol, and now is a partner at a famous firm, FWIW). Waldorf doesn't even believe in teaching reading till age 7 because why should you teach something till the majority fo kids are ready. I learned in 1st grade as did everyone else in the 70s. All of this is to say that K isn't late exceptthat our school system has VERY RECENTLY decided accelerated is better. he isn't ready. read to him and promise him he will get it one day soon. stop with the educational gimmics and tech stuff.
