My 6 year old just started Stanford EPGY, through the homeschooling open enrollment program, he is being introduced to a lot of concepts for the first time through this program, logic and reasoning is one of them. He has always scored close to 100% on everything in math, very consistently, but with logic and reasoning he is scoring in the mid 80's. I leave him to do it alone (he likes to be independent) but if I hover over him a bit while he is working, I can tell he is really struggling to understand some of the logic, (but somehow is still getting high grades?!). I read somewhere that kids of a young age cannot do logic and reasoning because their brains aren't mature enough. He is working at a 3rd grade level atm.
Should I somehow try to help him by practicing more logic and reasoning with other sources, or should I just let him keep going and wait for him to get it in his own time? The logic and reasoning portion is dragging his overall scores down (albeit, not by much, since he is at 96%, but he is a perfectionist), that upsets him. I hate to see him struggle with it and become upset, but I am also worried that its just something he isn't ready for yet.
