There's that circular reasoning again. It goes like this:

1. It's developmentally inappropriate to expect students to be emergent readers by the end of kindergarten. 
 2. Therefore, if there are data that show that &gt;90% of students in a school system are emergent readers by the end of kindergarten, there must be something wrong with the data. 
 3. I know this because it's developmentally inappropriate to expect students to be emergent readers by the end of kindergarten. [/quote]

So, I can teach my 12 year old to drive a car.  No problem.  Does that mean it is developmentally appropriate?

What benefit comes from teaching a Kindergartener to read an emergent text?  Research please.

How/why is it developmentally inappropriate to expect students to be emergent readers by the end of kindergarten? So far all we have is that it's developmentally inappropriate because it's developmentally inappropriate. Oh, and also that some other countries do things differently.[/quote]
