[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter was not reading until first grade. She quickly passed many other students and within months was reading anything and everything. She scored 99%ile on reading for the rest of her school career.[/quote] I wasn't taught to read until 2nd grade (school philosophy) but we were quickly reading grade 2 material, we just totally skipped the stuff before because we were really ready. Don't sweat it. About reading to your kids, it's absolutely correct that it helps a lot but I remember reading an article that said you should point to the words you are reading so they will really understand. Can't remember the source, sorry. My kid is still a toddler, so no direct experience yet.[/quote]
