Ah, i didn't realise Scotland had different guidelines. I don't like looking on the guideline becuase i am seeing that my son already knows alot of the things he will be being *taught* in 1-2 years time.
My DS was taught skip counting by his nursery teacher during 'freeflow' time, so i was told. DS uses it occasionally for quick multiplication or to see how many cars he has in a traffic jam! the teacher showed him 2s and 5s (he could already do 10s) and hes worked out 3s (and 4s to 16).
We are waiting for then to test his reading again, then we are thinking of writing a letter of concern to the Head, so we can arrange a meeting - this way they have time to gather information etc and not be 'put on the spot'.
