[quote=Anonymous]Back to the OPs question--no, kids are not expected to read before kindergarten. Many in this area do, but it's not the majority. DS knew his letters and how to write his name at the start of K but could not read. We read every night to him so I was surprised he did not pick it up sooner. I was wondering early in kindergarten if it was ever going to click. It took until about Feb-March before he could really sound things out. now he is at the end of first grade and reads at the top of grade level. Reads books silently to himself and loves it. Do not sweat it. Let kindergarten progress next year, keep reading TO them, and see how things go.[/quote]
