[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends more and the age of the child rather than the grade. My girls are some of the oldest the class with September and October birthdays. They did not know how to read before K, but they ended K at level J (first born) and level L (second born and current kindergartener). They are both not the norm, but you can’t really compare a 6.5 year old with a 5.7 year old. My eldest is finishing second grade and reading ALL THE TIME on her own in 2 languages many kids of books including Harry Potter and the likes. She is very smart also. My second reads kids A to Z and loves the Dory Fantasmagory books or Tea Stilton (spell?). I started reading with them (not to them) in k every night for 1 year. I think that helped a lot… what they do in school might not be enough and my girls are in private school where a lot of emphatic is out on reading and writing.[/quote]
