[quote=Anonymous][quote]He's just turned five in September and is expected to produce stacks of worksheets.[/quote] I don't feel as though we know enough about what the "in class work" that OP referenced consists of to say that. In m son's K class, they have assignments where they are asked to write words, or if possible, sentences about a topic, sounding out the words as best they can, spelling doesn't matter, and present it to the class. It is on pre-xeroxed sheets, but really, it seems like my son has fun with it and has written some pretty interesting things. it is fun to have him read them back to me (I can only make out what he meant about 30 percent of the time). Afterwards, I can tell why he thought some of the words were spelled that way, though I never would have thought so initially.[/quote]
