My DS in 3rd had a issues last year and this year going to fast with his work and missing answers. In Math he would miss doing half of the directions. He has been under challenged in school and I think this is part of the problem. The gifted teacher says he is so confident he wants to zoom ahead. They worked with the 3rd graders this year on specific study habits. They are circling and highlighting information to slow the kids down and pay attention. My son has caught on to this and is doing much better.
