[quote=Anonymous]I learned in first grade (age 6-7, I think) and I went to yale and harvard. my son also just learned in first grade when he was around 6.5. i was starting to feel just slightly anxious about it, and we did do teach a kid to read in 100 easy lessons book when he turned 6, but it really was just fine. If you are at all concerned, have your kid evaluated by a reading specialist, but I think it is very common for kids to learn to read between kindergarten and second grade. I think its third grade when they really start reading for content/secondary learning so you want the kid to have reading fluency by 3rd grade. The people who can read before 5 are outliers as are, probably, the people who can't read by 9. [/quote]
