One more HWOT question
I've decided on HWOT for my 1st grader, but I have a question for my 4 yo.
Please understand -- I am NOT trying to push her academically. She is very developed in her fine motor skills. She's writing letters and words on her own as it is and reading a bit, too -- all things she picked up by being a tag-along student. I want to get her a HWOT workbook -- mostly to give her the option of something to do "like sis" when dd1 is doing handwriting. The preschool level book is mostly pre-writing -- since she already knows her letters, should I go ahead and get her the K book? Opinions?

Re: One more HWOT question
I would get her the K book . We started DS on that when he was 4 and he was very ready for it and did great - it spends half the book on capital letters which are good for starting to learn.
Worst case scenario, you get the K book and realize it's too hard so you get the green PreK book instead and save the K for next year . |
