I disagree with this. In every class you will have some working at grade level, some behind, and some ahead. By putting him with the 2nd graders there is a better chance of finding someone working closer to his level and therefore someone he could potentially be grouped with. Clearly not the ideal scenario but possibly an improvement from the current one.
