[quote=Anonymous]Oh my. I admit with all my various concerns about my child starting Kindergarten - lack of academic rigor as never entered my mind. Truthfully more of the opposite. I'm hoping that they still do get plenty of time to play and do lots of play based learning. I'm wishing they still did morning snack and recess and hoping they have quiet time after lunch/afternoon recess. I also wish they had daily P.E. and lots of specials - including age-appropriate foreign language classes. In an odd way this thread is reassuring - I'm used to hearing about how academically focused Kindergarten is these days. Hopefully there will be a nice balance. I'm confident that my child will do well with reading, writing and math but really want it to be fun along the way and to continue to foster a love of school and learning and to develop good "learning skills" for a lack of a better word.[/quote]
