Just a short report back on our conference. First the positive, his teacher recognized that ds can read at higher level than the books she has in her classroom, and will be bringing higher reading level books to the classroom for him to choose to during the free reading time. She was fine, if ds brought books from home as well.
Math, however, was a different story. When I asked her about the review sheets, she became very defensive and said several times that a review of math basics is always a good thing and that she does not have a test that would assess ds math level. She will not change anything for math.
What I do not understand, how it makes sense to teachers that advanced readers need more advanced books, but the same logic does not apply to math. This is not something new, had the same problem with my other ds. But it is frustrating nevertheless.
