DS5 just started kindergarten this week. He is supremely happy. He comes home singing and is just generally joyful. I love this.
He brought home a letter "test" he took today. Guess who "suddenly" doesn't know all of the letters and "suddenly" can't read even though he has been reading words for over 3 years now and reading leveled readers for the past year?
I have an appointment with the TAG coordinator at my dd's school to speak to her about ds. He is a perfectionist, a bit on the lazy side (trying to be nice), and hard of hearing. I had a feeling he was going to try to play the "I'm only 5, you can't expect me to know this stuff" card at school.
What would you do with a situation like this. Happy child, happy doing the minimal amount of work. TAG testing for him is coming up this February. I wish I could just tell them to throw him in the TAG program so that even if he does the minimal amount, at least it is an accelerated version of the minimal amount. *sigh*
