[quote=Anonymous]We have a DC in K who is currently more than a year above grade level. The teacher has done a pretty good job of recognizing this and finding ways to challenge and engage. When the lesson calls for kids to write individual words, the teacher floats around the classroom observing and asks DC to write out whole sentences. When it's time for reading, she groups the advanced readers together, and then helps each kid pick books at their current level. I don't know where are kid will be in a few years, nor how sustainable this approach is, but so far we've been happy, and our kid feels challenged and happy too.[/quote]
