[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reality check. Is it really September and multiple people are taking about using flashcards with their kindergartners?[/quote] +1 to this. DS is newly 5 and in K and we just read. He did love endless alphabet for a while and I think it helped with the letters. Other than that I've just encouraged him to sound out words and figure it out in his own. A few months ago it felt like he was this close and it just wasn't clicking. He would get frustrated so I did my darnedest not to push and make him hate reading. The past couple weeks he's started recognizing more words and just figuring it out. He read almost a whole Pete the Cat book the other night. I have no visions of him reading Harry Potter within the year but it's so cool watching him get excited about the fact that he can read signs, books, cards, etc. [/quote]
