sentence structure is invaluable. It's not rocket science. Amazingly kids who grow up in homes which respect reading and education, don't usually need such instruction unless they have disabilities such as dyslexia. Simply beginning to read pre-school is not at all unusual for kids coming from homes who introduce them to books early on. Unfortunately parents have less time for their kids today, and less resources to send their children to quality pre-school or Montessori. As a retired English teacher and (later), reading specialist, I was fortunately able to to be a stay at home mom in my daughter's early years. My daughter was already reading at about a 4th to 5th grade level when she entered 1st grade, without any pushing. She's no genius, and neither are many others who pick up reading even before formally entering school.
