[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope she’s in preschool [/quote] She is! It’s very play based though. My older child went to the same preschool and while I feel it’s a good school and is developmentally appropriate, it’s completely different than structured learning in kindergarten so I think working on literacy in a low key way at home would be beneficial for her.[/quote] Just an FYI at some point you will want to invest in a structured phonics program. Something like all about reading / all about spelling. For now start simple, once you get her reading on a K-1 level then focus on structured phonics. Phonics rules are the basis for the English language and knowing them will help her with spelling, writing, learning new word meanings, etc. I would not depend on school to teach these well. [/quote]
