Went to visit dad and family today. My younger sister has a daughter that is 3months younger than my daughter. They are both 4yrs old. DS was exclaiming on how smart her daughter was and how head start is putting her in the advanced learning classes. When I began to ask questions about what all neice could do it seemed that my daughter was much ahead, but I'm not quite sure if sis is stretching the truth.
We are using an unschooling approach right now for preschool and kind of just letting her pick her way through what she wants to learn. She has a keen sense for words. I believe she'd be able to read if I pushed it, but don't feel the need to. I guess I'm just trying to get a sense for where she should be as apposed to where she's at. She can do basic math( ie adding 2+2 on her fingers and counting to 10) She loves to sit down and write words and asks when she has problems with what a letter should look like. She can identify all of the letters in her name and can spell her name. I have thought of getting some kindergarten Curriculum and seeing if she likes doing it. Any recommendations?
