[quote=Anonymous]Those kids are bored because they already learned all this information in preschool. Both my kids went to highly academic preschools, because they were conveniently located and had good reputations. For math in particular the good preschools around here will teach more than is covered in k in the 4s room, considerably more if it’s a Montessori program and the kids like it. I don’t want to say I regret it, because it’s fine, kids can always practice and bright kids are bored a fair amount no matter what but when my oldest went to public school and I realized the teachers are also working with kids who have had no formal educational experience and in some cases are speaking English as a second language, yeah it makes sense they can’t just pick up where the preschool left off. So it’s literally nothing new the entire year of k.

Just don’t take it personally; I don’t think it’s a super polite thing to say but it’s not meant to hurt your feelings. Be glad your kid is happy![/quote]
