My dd is nearly 7 and is equivalent of Yr1, I think. (not in the UK). I was asking her about reading with the teacher and she said she is good at reading the words but not so good at acting the story and 'doing the voices'.
At this age I presumed it was about becoming more confident with recognising words, blending, sounding out etc than reading aloud in an entertaining manner.
Is it usual to put emphasis on this at this stage?

When your child (age 6-7) reads aloud, do you expect intonation etc?
