Maybe he's not gifted afterall? ... that was my inner thought couple days ago about DS4.10! We haven't done ANY school work since the end of preschool and with Kindergarten in couple weeks, I figured we might start with a little refresher. So I powered up the computer, signed into Dreambox Learning ... and ... was HORRIFIED that my child couldn't tell me what 3 + 4 was!!! My thoughts were "OMG! He doesn't know! He figured out these basic problems on his own 2 years ago and now he doesn't know? He's just like any of his NT friends! He's not gifted at all! Who am I kidding!" ... I was there to guide him through 2 of the problems and then I left and let him play. Came back 10 minutes later and my child was easily doing addition and subtraction to 20 without a second thought and just kept saying ... "Oh, this is easy! I know all this!" And there he was, my child was back! I guess he let any academics completely slip off his mind back in May and I totally fell for it! lol

Please, tell me I'm not the only parent who's had this happen to them??? smile
