[quote=Anonymous][quote]First grade and kindergarten teachers should not expect kindergartners and first graders to act and behave like 8 and 9 year olds. I am sorry. You are in the wrong profession if you think the solution for young children with no extreme issue who acting in a age-appropriate manner is to hold them back a year. Expect our kindergartners to act like 5 year olds, and teach them in a manner appropriate for that age. Do not expect them to act and behave like 7 year olds. [/quote] Sorry --but there are a lot of kids who mature later and have no learning problems. They just "fit in" better with a younger group. I have seen this first hand as a teacher.[/quote]
