[quote=Anonymous]Varies. My newly-turned 4 year old is just now starting to sound out consonant-vowel-consonant words. She might turn out to be an earlier reader than her older sister. My now 7.5 year old didn't get into reading until she was just about to enter 1st grade. She had a big vocabulary, was very verbal and chatty, and loved listening to books, but reading was a chore and a bore for her... until the summer before 1st grade started. Then BLAM! She just took off. I'd say she's now a very advanced reader. There are some kids in her 2nd grade class who apparently have just now hit this reading spurt. So says a friend of mine who volunteers in the class regularly (she never gives me any names, just mentioned that some kids took this long--the middle of 2nd grade--to accelerate). This is in a relatively high income, high education kind of school. Meaning: kids have almost all the academic advantages. [/quote]
