yes my daughter can read, write, add, subtract and multiply. She is getting pretty good at spelling and uses punctuation in her writing.

we are in england and i think that our kids start to learn these things a little sooner than they do in US.

Yes, mine can do all those things. For ABCs, 123s, and reading try www.starfall.com It's a FREE website that my son used starting at age 1 or 2. There's no giving them any information. You just get on there and do it. Good luck!

There is a full range of abilities at this time. My son who is 5 can write his name but hates doing it and starting to recognize some words. His school really focuses on phonetics at this age. If you are really concerned talk with your teacher. Most teacher don't exptect the kids to read at this time.
