all the students must read 50 books in third grade and take a ar test. He will have the choice of reading more advance level books.

I like the idea of him expanding his writing abilities tied into these books. He reads very quickly - about 10 books a week in summer 15 a week last winter. His testing show above level comprehension.

I think we have the math part of his day covered well at this point. We just have to try it and see how it goes.

I will try to get reccomended books. I am looking for more he can do that keeps him busy using his time well without isolation or without more books and stuff to keep track of.

Some of the ideas that I have are:
have him take an extra gym class. But that might cause resentment. wow would that be good for him if they would work. He loves gym.

another ideas that the school liked but couldn't schedule was to take music lesson. They offered the keyboard. I thought that would be great if he liked it and didn't feel like he was isolated missing out on being with his class.

I feel very luck the school is aware of abilities and willing to work with us. They said they never had a student like this before. I'm still worried for him. I'm not sure the exsiting plan will be enough for him. I feel like I need to be ready with more ideas. Things don't happen fast at school.
