What a great topic! My DS just turned 5 and will be starting in August. I fear that his teachers will not realize his potential. Then what do you do? Are we supposed to inform them early in the school year? I feel that my DS tries hard to blend with his peers and keeps his talents a secret. His preschool teacher had no idea that he could read and she told me that he has difficulty with numbers from 1-10...AHHHH!! He can do double digit addition and subtraction! So, do we set up a meeting with the teacher early on or just see if she recognizes his potential?
