[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]Stop trying to wedge your four year old into my almost 6 year old's classroom[/b] because you INSIST that s/he is ready for school because s/he is reading somewhat and can do more than simple addition. Does your kid no longer take a nap or need quiet time in the afternoon? Can s/he sit still for long stretches and pay attention to the teacher? Is s/he starting to socialize with peers on a 5/6 year old level? If the answer to those isn't yes, your kid doesn't belong there yet. [/quote] If it's an "almost six-year-old", then it's an "almost five-year-old". My child did early entrance to kindergarten (EEK). She turned five three weeks after school started. If we lived across the river in Virginia, she would have been starting kindergarten on time. In any case, it's up to the school district to decide who's ready . Not you, or me, or any other individual parent.[/quote]
