Hi EastnWest - I'm so sorry your DS doesn't like kindergarten. frown

I would say that it cannot hurt and can only help to let your teacher know that your DS has told you that the only thing he likes is Legos. If you didn't give the teacher a heads-up on your DS's abilities, she probably hasn't had time to notice with 25 kids.

Maybe start with your explanation that since you are moving in a few months, you didn't think you needed to say anything about DS's abilities, but he's been coming home very unhappy, and I think it's because he needs some more challenge. Here is what he could do before he started kindergarten (examples of advanced reading/math). Is it possible he be excused from some of the more basic instruction and given something else to do (higher math/chapter books)?

Just some thoughts. I hope things get better for your DS.

We dropped off our DS5 this morning for his first day, and he happily went off to play on the playground before the school bell rang. It was weird; I didn't feel nervous at all about dropping him off. I guess I wasted all my nervous energy ahead of time worrying about this day!
