[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Child looks at a book they have never seen before and can read it without help, using a combination of sounding out the words and knowing sight words[/quote] This. It's a great question, OP. There's a lot of "Larla was reading at 3" which really means "Larla had memorized texts" at 3. (Not to say there aren't 3 year olds who are properly reading.)[/quote] My 3.5 year old read new books at that age. It was not memorized. It surprised us. But, agree new book not memorized they've see hundreds of times.[/quote]
