Yeah, I never know what age a grade equates to. “4th grade” - is that age 4? Seems a bit young. So, if you start school about age 4, then that would be 1st grade I guess, so 4 + 4th grade would be age 8. Is that right?
It’s usually your grade + 5. Most people start school around 4 or 5 but before first grade there’s kindergarten.
And before that there’s preschool (optional) 3-4
I never went to preschool. I thought it was optional?
It is, I wrote optional in brackets
Good guess. Generally about 8-9.
