My dd(4) is in her first term in reception - a lovely school but very academic and they do tend to push them rather early (my opinion - dh thinks it's fine!). Anyway, she gets 6 reading books a week, flashcards every night bar one and writing practice three times a week. In reality it only takes 10-15 mins a night but it's still quite a bit for a 4 year old. Anyway REALLY peed off to read in dd's homework diary the following "X is STILL getting some of her numbers 1-10 the wrong way round, she needs to practice more at home. Please make sure she does this". Am I right to be fuming about this?? She's only 4 ffs and she's doing bloody homework every night as it is and now they are WHINGING about her getting her numbers mixed round the wrong way. I've just tested her and she did them all except the 5 and the 9 which she did mix up... but isn't that totally normal at this age??
Help me out please. Am I being over-sensitive? Thanks.
