[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At that age for all children...no..some are really sounding words out..[/quote] And good for those who are. Good for those who have a lot of sight words. Good for those who don't give a crap about reading until they're in early elementary and will never read for pleasure but are great at something else. It takes all kinds. People who feel they need to hide their kids skills think that their kids are so obviously better than everyone else's that other parents will be jealous if they know the kid's superpower. Just be matter-of-fact about it if the topic comes up and shut up otherwise (or be prepared to be mocked behind your back -- not out of jealousy, but because your smugness is hilarious). If you need to brag, talk to your spouse or the kid's grandparents. Signed, Another parent of an early fluent reader[/quote]
