I have been a little bit concerned about dd for while. I need some opinions and a bit of perspective on whether this really is a problem. Dd is in reception in a relatively pushy school, she is the youngest in her year but having said that there are other August born children who are not struggling in the slightest. She can form all her letters and numbers though it is often a bit of a mess and recognise 15 or so keywords and decode CVC words, so not too worried about this as I can see progress. Although most others in class are reading much more and writing sentences. But am more worried about maths in class they are counting to 100, addition and subtraction to 20, counting in 10s and 2s amongst other things. Dd can rote count to 20, and count objects reliably to about 4, after this she double counts or misses objects out altogether. We practice counting at home and when out and about, not as work just as play, but it just isn't clicking. Could this be a problem or is she ok for age 4 and a half? Thanks
