[quote=Anonymous]Early education is so trend driven. Someone somewhere writes a book or a paper about something, and suddenly there is a “new and better” way of doing something. Young kids learn how to read by being read to. Parents today are too busy to actually spend time with their kids during the day, and are then shocked when their first grader can’t read a chapter book. Kids need more one on one teaching than your daycare (or kindergarten!) can give your kid. Read to your kid (and not just a couple books at bedtime), show them words during the day, talk to them and label things in your house. I’m so sick of ineffective early education majors preaching (and of course simultaneously complaining) their newest jargon. Educated parents of the world, Just ACTUALLY spend time with your kids ages 0-5 and they will be Fine![/quote]
