[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a teacher who has taught K and first, I can tell you that plenty of kids blossom and pass the early bloomers.  Sometimes the early bloomers have been "trained" and not taught.  A natural curiosity and enthusiasm is much preferable to early reading.[/quote]

Oh, give me a fu&king break.  As if early readers are generally NOT curious or enthusiastic as a whole.  Such crap.

I was an early reader and I always lived to read and lived to learn.  I taught DS to read early and he still loves to read.  He has always been very enthusiastic about school and partly, I think it's because he does well.

Yes, late readers seem to catch up by third grades and it's not a big deal either way.  But don't imply that early readers are less curious or less enthusiastic learners.  How ridiculous.[/quote]
Well she is the teacher so she must know.  I love it when people feel like they can speak for everyone.  It is even more surprising that a teacher would make such a generalization. Please don't let my DDs has that teacher.  Please!!!!
