Hi all,
I came across this forum while searching for advice on what to do for my son. He taught himself to read just after he turned three. He is reading at about a second grade level (really any of those "I Can Read books"). We are thrilled he is reading, but very worried about what to do about his education. He is starting a preschool where the "goals" for the year include learning to recognize your own name in print and learning the alphabet. Its too late for the year to change schools. But I am looking for help about 1) what I can do to make his teacher individualize her lessons to take him into account, and 2) how to choose a better school for him next year. I feel like I can't talk to any of my mom friends about this, so my usual resources are not useful. I am thinking that maybe finding a child psychologist would be a good place to start. We are in the Atlanta area. Thanks in advance!
