I had similar issues with my DS6 and DS8. If you have the time, you might ask his teacher if you could volunteer in your son's classroom so that you can observe what's going on. It's eye opening to finally see what kind of materials they are being taught and at what moments your kid starts losing interest
Yes! I did this with DS8 when he was 6 and in grade 1.
It was the pace of the activity that shut him out. It was soooo sloooowww.... I could feel myself getting stressed out on his behalf. He was in and out of his seat, looking under his desk, staring at the ceiling, examining the overhead projector to see how it worked, following the path of the electrical cords, etc etc, all becauuussee tthheee leeessssoonnn wwaasss soooooooo sssllloooowwww...
(sigh)
