LOL, groups of one still make me laugh, I see DS's future as many groups of ones. His latest math interest is factors and double digit multiplication and long division. It amazes me how he suddenly learned about factors (from that show cyberchase on TV) and then got it right away and was suddenly able to give all the factors of numbers like 68. That is so crazy to me. I don't imagine they will have a group for him in the first grade class that would be a good fit.

That's great that you are at a school that seems to get him and is going to try to challenge him. I think we have a school like that as well. I am hopeful and looking forward to seeing how it goes in the fall.
