Jeimey - I'd be really angry at a report like that, esp when the scene was set for unresponsive right from the start! Can you not see someone who specialises in PG kids?

Aiden will start grade 0 (K) in January here. we are very excited for him to be there - the teacher he will have will be great for him I think. the school had a long meeting with the parents a few days ago (DH went, i was at home with the kids) and he is quite excited by what they presented - they explained how they work with the kids and how they teach through play. They did bang on a bit about the fine motor skills blah blah (Aiden is not a fan of loads of colouring - he will do a bit and then prefers to find something else to do, and they colour and cut out every single day at the moment in pre-K), but they also mentioned some specific kids who are scattered through the school (pre - 7) who are far advanced in maths or other subjects.
So we are re-assured for now and the aim is just to get him though the boring stuff this year and into the good stuff next year where we hope he will feel happier and more excited to learn at school. currently he is of the opinion that if he wants to learn or know something he waits to get home.
