[quote=Anonymous]Do you have an IEP? 504 plan? It sounds like he needs accommodations for extended time? I would supplement and encourage his interests outside of school, look for cool science camps and that kind of thing, get lots of books for him to read on his areas of interest, and not worry about acceleration at school. They don't do much anyway, and TBH if he is uneven, he will likely struggle without supports. Focus on outside of school. My 2E kid has a lot of trouble with things like getting the basic math right even though he can understand conceptually very sophisticated math. TBH, it does not get easier because you DO need to get the right answer and if you can't do the basic math reliably you can't. So he over-accelerated, IMO, in HS (because he wanted to) and then has really struggled. [/quote]
