Just wanted to update all you folks who encouraged me ! I spoke with my daughters montessori teacher and at first my DD resisted reading with her and the teacher stopped trying right away and I told her no hurry ! Then after a week she tried again and this time she is convinced DD can read very well ! Now my daughter is reading the short u sound books.

They are also giving her lot of other exercises like matching the words and pictures etc. The teacher tells me she is doing well.

Reading keeps DD occupied and I haven't done anything related to math with her all this month.She is also learning to write numbers in school and alhabets at home. She likes it a lot !
