[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have to manipulate confidence, its unwarranted. That is the point. [/quote]

Ok,  then it’s unwarranted for four-year-olds to be expected to be in kindergarten and Reading, writing, etc. Some can do it, most will struggle and fee like they suck because they are fish trying to climb a tree. Nearly all would be better spent doing something else.[/quote]\

Ok, then stop putting 7 year olds in K and let it become 4 year old appropriate again. Some will suck at it their whole life, some will be better at it, just like at 4. [/quote]

Who is putting 7-year-olds in kindergarten? Or 4-year-olds? At least in Maryland, thanks to Governor Hogan's executive order, the only kids who are 4 on the first day of kindergarten did early entry. If you started on schedule, you're 5 on the first day. If you started with a one-year delay, you're 6. Hypothetically, I suppose, there might be kids who turned 6 between September 1 and the first day after Labor Day (September 5 this school year), and whose parents delayed their entry into kindergarten for a year, but I'm just not going to worry about that, just as I'm not going to worry about giraffes eating my azaleas.[/quote]
