wow momof1 that sounds so amazing! I'm envious. That is great that he goes to a first grade class. My DD5.5 has a reading buddy as all K kids do (hers is a fourth grader) and according to my daughter my daughter helps the older child since she is a struggling reader. Are you in a public school? My DD's K is only 2.5 hours and I interpreted 'not going up' to mean not touching the curriculum of the grade ahead let alone visiting the classroom. I have spoken to her teacher and the school counselor. I think we may need to have a meeting at the end of the year to decide what will truly work. Her teacher clearly sees she is gifted so there is no fight there. The counselor calls her "charming and socially adept" so why do they seem to content to just have her float along? Maybe it is because my DD is singing and smiling all the time. This may change once she is in a full time program that does not meet her needs...
