You probably have heard of the TV show "Are you Smarter Than a 5th Grader," but is this just the way things are going that 5th Graders are smarter than we are?
I know I'm surprised to see the homework my 2nd Grader is bringing home compared to what I learned in 2nd Grade and I know I'm not the only parent that thinks this way. I'm a happy parent to hear my 3 year old saying that's a "S" or "U" or saying his ABC's, but I also know that he has to start doing these things to make sure he will be ready for Kindergarten. I cannot believe kids are learning to read (or have already started) in Kindergarten instead of just learning the regular old ABC's on Alphabet Island.
