[quote=Anonymous][quote]If a kid has less art in 2nd grade so that he can get back on track for 3rd, so what? It's not as though that will stunt him for life. Art is one of those areas where you can for the most part pick up and put down anywhere. Reading isn't. [b]Reading on the other hand requires incremental steps and the foundational building blocks like phonics are CRUCIAL.[/b] If that kid is left to struggle in 2nd, and then is even farther behind in 3rd, it just compounds from there and IS a big deal and he WILL likely be struggling not just throughout the rest of school, but likely in life and career after school.[/quote] The process of learning to read is not the same for all kids. Why? Because our brains are not exactly the same. Far from it. [/quote]
