Hi.
First can I say I am not writing this to boast or anything. It will sound like I am but I am the total opposite and try to play things down etc. That's why I'm asking for help on here and not to a teacher as I would be embarrassed. ....
My daughter is 3. She will be 4 in a month or so and so be going to primary school august. Her nursery teacher has told me they have let the primary school know that she can read as they will need to accommodate this. Can anyone tell me what this means exactly? is it very unusual to be able to read?
This bit will sound like boasting, but I just need to know if this is normal or not for a 3 year old as I have no family etc to compare with....
- she can read everything. Newspapers books magazines. Instruction manuals. Ingredients of food. Everything.
- can identify any number 1 to 1000. Prob more I don't know to be honest.
- every colour and shape etc.
-can write every letter and number. Upper and Lower case. Can write full sentences and asks how to spell each word then writes
Some other stuff as well but i expect you will be bored already!
I know all kids learn at different speed and will catch up etc. I just wonder if it is unusual and if there is anything I should do about it. Will she be bored in primary 1 if they learning ABC etc?
Thanks in advance for any help
Jen
