[quote=Anonymous]Preschool teacher chiming in: A girl turning 5 with an August birthday typically is better prepared than a boy with the same birthdate because girls develop executive functioning skills earlier than boys. If your preschool teachers think your DD is ready and you don't have any specific concerns regarding your daughter other than the date on the calendar, I would recommend sending her. If your school is public, take your DD to the Kindergarten roundup program this spring. It is a way that the Kindergarten team can do an evaluation of your child and you can see how your daughter participates with this peer group. Call up the office at your local school to find the dates and schedule an appointment.[/quote]
