[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"My kindergartener is already reading on a third grade level. He is so bored in school. It must be because he is gifted." No. He is the same age as a second grader but he is doing his second grade work in a kindergarten class. So mot gifted. Just 'big for his age' or old for his age. You pick. [/quote] My husband came back from a trip to the playground with our son and mentioned that my son had met a little boy there. The child volunteered the following info: "I'm in kindergarten, but I'm doing 1st grade math." (Um, yep...because you're supposed to be in first grade!) In my other son's class, the kid who turned 7 in K was in the top reading group. His mom thought he was really advanced. I on the other hand thought (1) wait a minute...MY 7 yr old is in 2nd grade this year; and (2) my 5 yr old is in the same reading group as your 7 yr old. Doesn't that feel a tiny bit akward?[/quote]
