I'm a first grade teacher...its my experience that many kids who turn 5 in late summer and start kindergarten struggle in 1st grade- its a maturity thing, and lots of skills are developemental (meaning, they will get the skills eventually, but if they are young for their grade, it may take them awhile longer). There is no harm in waiting a year with kids who turn kindergarden age in late summer or early fall, IMO!
