For what it's worth, our teacher has told us directly that DS will not be taught more than addition this year. Perhaps for the same reason (gaps). We have our GIEP in a few weeks, so we'll see.
Yikes! I thought they'd at least have subtraction in first grade too? Our school does.
Ah, I should have clarified. Additions/subtraction math facts (part of the "number pairs"). DS has his multiplication facts down cold already. This is part of what we want to work on with his GIEP. We're a bit put off by the fact the we were told we couldn't go beyond add/subtract. The boy loves math. Let's not kill that.
