[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Enroll him in other things to challenge his brain beyond just moving ahead. Coding class, language class, music lessons. All of these will make his brain work without increasing boredom in school. [b]All bright kids are bored in 1st and 2nd grade. Things don't really level out until 3rd for reading.[/b][/quote] This is the truth. Until 3rd, advanced kids (often just early readers) are bored. Try music lessons, send in books so he has more options during free reading time, and view this as an opportunity for him to build confidence by being a leader in his class. Don't worry, he's not missing anything. No school in the area, public or private, is focused on "advanced" k-2.[/quote]
