[quote=Anonymous] Another poster. Why is it so important to distinguish whether a kid can identify long and short vowel sounds in kindergarten as opposed to first grade? Does this make any difference in the long run? Will the kid who can identify those sounds in kindergarten as opposed to first grade have better life outcomes? Really? It just sounds ridiculous to have standards be this specific to grades at those ages. Why are we spending money on this? This poster who says that there are more important things to worry about in kindergarten is right. I just base this on common sense. I hope that's enough for the poster who asks "what do you base this on?" If not, we're really taking education to more absurd levels than I imagined. [/quote]
