[quote=Anonymous]I have a similar child in a later grade. The teacher will figure it out whether or not you say anything. It's pretty obvious during routine assessments if a child is capable of reading chapter books. However, it's not clear that having this information will help because a teacher still has to teach the class at a general kindergarten level. The best you can hope for is that your DD and the other readers in the class have the opportunity to read on their own. I don't think Kindergarten will be boring because there is so much to learn that is non-academic (i.e. how to behave at a new school, how to work in groups, routines, etc). Later grades may pose a bigger problem for boredom. [/quote]
