The Way We Live Now - Kindergarten Cram - NYTimes.com: "I wonder how far I’m willing to go in my commitment to the cause: would I embrace the example of Finland — whose students consistently come out on top in international assessments — and delay formal reading instruction until age 7?

Interesting.
