[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]K, by far. Coming from a play-based school with three outdoor recesses to having to sit still all day long and do worksheets and write "stories" was a huge transition. The teacher didn't have a single nice thing to say about DS. The later years, as the academics became more interesting and the students get more freedom and aren't herded around the school like cattle telling them to keep their hands to themselves, were much better. [/quote]These K responses make me feel better. My young Ker has been struggling. It's just a lot of for a little kid. She can already read pretty well, so I am not concerned about academics, but K expectations have her totally stressed out. It is a huge jump from her play based pre-K. If later grades are even more stressful, we're in trouble.[/quote]
