[quote=Anonymous]That K readiness list strikes me as very ambitious for fall of K. Dividing syllables? Dd in 1at I think still has not learned about syllables and dividing them from what I can tell. As for some of the less crazy things like knowing all your letters, the schools are in a tough spot since the reality is that almost all middle class kids go to preachool first and so come in knowing much more than K kids did a generation ago. But poor kids likely have not had that so they are starting from a much similar spot to when I went to K. If you do not push the kids who come in behind though and continue to rightfully let the more prepared kids move ahead, how do the kids who did not have preschool catch up? [/quote]
