[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just read to your child.[/quote] +1 In Finland, reading isn't generally taught until age 7, and they have great success in learning. https://www.npr.org/2014/03/08/287255411/what-the-u-s-can-learn-from-finland-where-school-starts-at-age-7 There's nothing wrong with teaching kids earlier if they're enjoying it, but if they are frustrated, just drop it and wait. [/quote] The myth of Finland being a great success at education just won't die. All this silly Look at Finland! nonsense was based on the great scores on PISA they attained two decades ago, but their PISA scores have been slipping ever since. Finland was always middle of the pack on TIMSS, the other big international comparative test. [/quote]
