DD nearly 5 started school in Sept
It is an ofsted outstanding faith school
Since she started we have had a few teething trouble, and I have already been called into school on 2 occasions
The first week she started she pushed a girl over because they where fighting over a stool. Then a few weeks later I was called in, because her and another little boy where playing on the computer keyboard at school with a toy dinosaur and broke off one of the keys.
I obv told off dd and told her this behaviour was unacceptable.
DD also told me last week that she got wrong at school because she poured her water on the floor deliberately which again is totally out of character
The thig is, this behaviour is totally out of character, I have never had any problems with her either at nursery or the childminders.
I am not saying she is perfect but she is not really a naughty child.
Anyhow we have been off school this week due to the snow so I have spent a lot of time with her, and I have noticed that she is starting to read words in everyday life such as on tv or in a book. So I have been reading some phonics books with her, and she can start to sound and read all the words with no problems at all. She sits and writes words, spells them out load and generally is amazing me at how much she has progressed.
I am starting to wonder if she is perhaps a bit bored at school because she is not doing any reading at all, and just keeps coming home with sounds to learn which she can do with ease, and generally seems to be learning through play at school. Although I know this is part of the curriculam, I am wondering if perhaps I should ask the teacher
for extra work for her, or perhaps to start doing some reading with her, or at least bring a reading book home?
I really dont want to be one of those pushy mums so should I say something or keep out of it?
