[quote=Anonymous]If you’re willing to consider a different school, you might look into Montessori. She could stay with her age cohort but be working many grades ahead. My 4 year old was adding 3 digit numbers and reading fluently thanks to their structure allowing him to move on. In K he did multiplication/division/fractions/decimals. We had always planned to put him into public school eventually, but it was shocking how little he was challenged when we swapped him in 1st grade. That said, the social/emotional piece was brutal, so I think all his mental effort went to navigating social dynamics at a new school. He’s now in 5th grade and I’m glad I didn’t skip him. It’s not a race.[/quote]
