A few blog posts worth reading as kids start back to school:
From Geekmom - Education Week: Reading Readiness Has To Do with the Body
I cannot stress the importance of trusting that your child will learn to read. Give it time and know that when you allow your little one to trust his/her own body, they will know the best time to read or take on any other new challenges in life. Waiting and seeing how they discover reading in their own time is truly a wonderful experience for them and the momma.
A Magical Childhood - What Should a 4 Year Old Know?
It breaks my heart listening to parents (even homeschooling parents) discuss their children based on levels and capabilities. Give them love. Spend time with them digging up weeds, playing Legos, playing tag, etc. Give them time, trust, and love and the rest just falls into place.
