[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is so interesting to see how different cultures can be. I am in Canada and where I live the cut off is Dec 31st for K. You have to turn 5 by the end of the year. We also have junior kindergarten where you need to be 4 by Dec 31st. In many places, the JK and SK classes are mixed so there are kids from 3 turning 4 to 5 about to the 6 in the class. Some schools keep them separate but all K where I live is play based so ages aren't all the vital. There is no such thing as red shirting, holding back or repeating K. You go to K on time and then move on with your cohort. Immaturity mostly resolves itself by 3rd grade.[/quote] Much better system! [/quote]
