[quote=Anonymous]OP, because you refer to your child as a 4 year old and not an "almost 5 year old" I am going to assume she has another whole year before K. Not having any interest in reading or writing is COMPLETELY developmentally appropriate. And because you say she is in "pre-K," I am assuming this is a daycare where you move rooms based on age and it may even be that some of her "classmates" are going to K this year. Either way, a kid who is a full year away from entering Kindergarten who can read 50 sight words is not the norm--nor is it uncommon, but definitely not the expectation. Does she recognize her letters. Does she know what sound any of them make? Can she spell her name? Does she recognize her name? [/quote]
