[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, how many kids in an average Mclean K class start off reading? There were only two dc out of 28 who started K off already reading books in ds's class.[/quote] I can't tell you how many parents I've met who insisted that their kids could read entering into K, when in fact, it really turns out that they had just memorized a few beloved books. Not saying that this isn't a good first step toward reading, but I am convinced that most parents exaggerate their kids' reading skills in K. [/quote] Ok, very curious about how you know this. Do you volunteer and secretly assess reading levels of the kids whose parents claimed they can read just to see if the parents were exaggerating? Do you cross examine the parents to see what the kids are reading and if its Dr. Seuss or a limited number of books, you conclude that they are not REALLY reading? [/quote]
