[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At our "play-based" preschool, the teachers teach writing, counting, and other "academics" during the pre-K year. It's "play-based" but not all play; good balance between academic learning and lots of unstructured playground time/imaginary play. [/quote] Ours taught the abcs and counting to 20. That is not enough for today's k. Also, the kids did not have enough desk setting time which makes k a harder transition. Plus some kids, usually boys don't get enough fine motor practice. Our playbase school allowed the kids to choose so my kid never chose things involving fine motor. He was definitely behind. Kumon has helped and we have seen a ton of his classmates at kumon.
