Aiden re-did his reading assessment today. The teacher carefully and resolutely told me that he will be staying at his current tested level.
So no maths and reading at a very much lower level.
Tonight I helped him do his own mini project to take to school tomorrow - based on their theme... He googled the Taj Mahal after I told him about it, we found a picture to print and then he chose 4 facts about it to write beneath the picture. Not an essay for sure, but it's a start back to where we were 2 months ago. Once he got into it he was really enjoying it.
I am also making him a reading box, where we will keep his own level books in for him to read whenever he wants. He is quite excited about this and asked if we can do it again tomorrow.
This beats the anger and freak-outs. Now I must just convince DH to let me home school him (you know, cause what I am doing now is nothing like home schooling *insert heavy sarcasm here*)
