[quote=Anonymous] I would also agree that even very intuitively bright children are not necessarily reading at age 4. Learning the letters of the alphabet and the sounds they represent is an early skills. Also, reading nursery rhymes and having your child learn to say them - at first by chiming in on a rhyming word or one at the end of a line and then maybe alternating lines helps build the concepts of words, rhyme and following on a printed page. Children learn at different paces - we have twin granddaughters in kindergarten, and the pace is varied and not surprising. I have always favored a phonics base to instruction. Reading aloud daily is so important as is taking the child to the public library to have books in your home and letting your child choose a book he/she would like read to him.[/quote]
