I think you need to wait. Maybe not a couple of months, but the first few weeks of K is more about getting used to the routine, the teacher's figuring out how to manage the class, she's trying to not only figure out your child but all the others too. There will be children in the class who never went to preschool, and even for those that did, it's still all new. It takes a loooong time to do all the placement tests. And I'd put money on the early work being super easy to build confidence.

I waited six weeks and then fought them for years, but I think I was right to wait six weeks. It was respectful of the teacher's many challenges, and gave her a chance to figure it out for herself.

Notsogifted, I'll take you up on that.
