[quote=Anonymous]Look, picture books are great and all and my advanced reader still appreciates them now in late elementary, but they go by really quick. My DC could go through 20 of them in one day in K even when reading them carefully, studying the pictures slowly and really throughly enjoying them. They are not enough to pass the time in a class where they are trying to teach kids how to count to 100 and how to sound out three-letter words. Your child will literally have hours each week to read on her own. FWIW, DD loved that aspect of school. That and being able to socialize with her friends since there was basically no work for her to do. She was not bored. [/quote]
