[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is in K. The materials I'm seeing sent home from our public ES in the DMV don't seem to be too focused on phonics. At home my kid is doing well with Bob books and similar because they focus on sounds she has learned. At school it seems like it is about memorizing sight words rather than sounding out words and she doesn't seem do great with that. She gets stressed out when she can't sound things out. I am a little surprised because of all the talk about the science of reading. [/quote] I don’t teach my kid to read and I read to him a lot. Every night from a young age. I don’t know if that helped any. [/quote]
