[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent and teacher here. I strongly recommend you leave the teaching to his teachers. Just read to him, play rhyming games....[/quote] I agree with this because of the opportunity cost. Teachers are paid to teach kids to read. I need to teach my kid manners, how to dress himself, how to unload a dishwasher, how to cross a street safety, consent, how to ride the metro and bus, how to be a good friend, how to cook, how to clean, how to do laundry, how to change light bulbs, all about emotions and how to manage them, self discipline, the best way to pet a cat, and how to brush his teeth. Teachers aren’t going to teach that stuff. [/quote] NP. I put teaching my kid to read on this list. I think early reading is important and it's easier to learn one-on-one than in a classroom. It only takes 20 minutes a day if you do it consistently. [/quote]
