[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is in Kindergarten and is ahead of her peers.  Not exponentially so- she is by no means a genius.  But since the beginning of the year she has basically been reviewing.  The teachers differentiate when they can, and she has absolutely made progressions. The problem is that I think she could be progressing faster.  Additionally, I wonder, when will this problem stop.  At what age does this balance out?  Finally, as a parent, what should I be doing.  Let it all be and see how it shakes out.  Or, provide my own enrichment that will only continue to contribute to the problem?

I am not trying to start "the my child is gifted" battle.  She isn't gifted.  She just happens to be on the older end of the spectrum age wise and she seems to have an interest in academic pursuits.  She is completely normal socially and emotionally.[/quote]

What month is her birthday? If she is within 6 weeks of the cut off I would apply for her to be bumped up a grade. Did this with my DD who is now in 3rd and she is thriving academically and socially. [/quote]
