[quote=Anonymous]Teach him to read. There is never a greater age to learn to read than at 4. The child still has lots of time, no formal schoolwork and the time to learn slowly. I taught all my kids to read before K and it pays off when they can read all the instructions for seatwork independently and gain an extra year of reading-to-learn. And all the people who pretend “it all evens out by third grade”, it doesn’t. The kids who were in the highest reading group at 5 stay in that same group (and usually the highest math group) by the time they get picked up in AAP.[/quote]
