I'm going to talk with DS's teacher about the working ahead- and what it actually means. If it means no instruction, then it may not be the best thing.

DS is six- he gets impatient if he doesn't understand something immediately and may work through the problems incorrectly just to get something down. He's also anxious about asking for help.

His math standardized test score were high (99th percentile) so I do feel confident that he can handle some harder math, but will need to adjust to less instruction.

Sigh. School this year has been a drag to say the least.
