Thank you polar bear. I think we need some more information, both on where he is in regards to the curriculum at our school and how important it is for him to be fluent on his facts. Honestly, trying to do some of the 4th grade work this weekend has been stressful, he doesn't know how to do some of it and gets very frustrated. At this point I'm wondering if he should even be in 3rd grade math. They didn't even suggest 2nd, but since they didn't share much data about his abilities compared to the curriculum, I'm starting to wonder if they got ahead of themselves because of his strong reasoning skills.
ajinlove- I'm sorry your meeting was cancelled. We actually requested an EMT, which by law they have to hold in 30 days. All that was required was for me to email and request one, and the clock started ticking. Just an idea :-)
