We just had an updated Woodcock Johnson III achievement test for DS5 done the other day. The reason was we wanted to see how he had done this year in K and also to have something to bring to the school showing where he is at academically. As far as math and reading/writing he hasn't learned anything in school this past year. He has, however continued his KUMON and reading/writing at his own leisure a home.

Going in to 1st grade I am in need of suggestions, ideas, things you might have done that has worked for a kid like him. It is obvious he can not follow the 1st grade curriculum...but how do you find a practical way to have him stay in 1st grade and still be taught at his level, or somewhat close to it?

He is an incredibly self driven, ambitious kid who "LOVES to work" (His own words)
