[quote=Anonymous]Jumping in late to this discussion. My ds was also reading well at the beginning of kindergarten. Fortunately there's a lot more to "reading" than just the mechanics of knowing what the words say. In kindergarten simply reading the words becomes almost taken for granted, and comprehension is key. The kids learn about characters and setting, and they learn to state what happened at the beginning, middle, and end of the story. They draw and write about the story. They answer questions to show how well they understood what they read. They go far beyond only "reading" the story and explore what it means. So even those reading already should be able to find some challenge.[/quote]
