Reading
Hi mums/ dads, my son is 5yrs old, in K1 and he still doesnt know how to read sentences, he can read words like boy, bat, ball, apple. Am really worried that he is lagging behind :'(
There shouldn't be a problem if he can read the words. Maybe you can try breaking the sentence into multiple word cards. For example: I am a boy. Let him read "I", then "am", "a", "boy". After that combine the words and let him read the sentence. Maybe he is just not so confident in reading sentences. Don't forget to compliment him when he is trying to read.

Does his teacher have any comment on that? If not maybe you can bring your child to speech therapy
