[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does your child know letter sounds? Can he rhyme? Does he know any sight words?[/quote] Yes, he knows letter sounds. Yes, he knows about 20 sight words. I don't think he can rhyme. He knows the word cat but doesn't yet get hat if I switch the c to an h. DH and I don't pressure him. [b]He gets frustrated that he doesn't get it.[/b][/quote] OP, it's the frustration issue that you need to deal with at this point. What isn't he getting? Are you asking him to read to you? Is he taking the initiative of trying to read to you? I don't quite believe that you're not pressuring him even if you're not meaning to. Many kids are not reading at this age who will quite soon. At this point, [i]just read to him[/i]. Play the rhyming games/question about what you read down the road. I would speak to the teacher about his anxiety if it doesn't lessen.[/quote]
