[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I would go broader with her education at this level. Pick up a language, have her read everything she can get her hands on. If she's a math/science girl, there are loads of educational programs she can view at home and workbooks/experiments she can do. Jumping from 1st to 3rd is a big leap, developmentally. It's not just about her socialization skills but how she will be treated by others if they are aware of her age. [/quote] Disagree.!! That's the same dilemma/problem with honors programs or courses. They think the way to solve "my child is not challenged" is to give him more work than everyone else. Which usually just raises the misery factor rather than lowers it. Smart kids need free time too and a social life too. Don't do this piling on as if that helps.[/quote]
