This was included in Owen’s welcome packet. I know all kids achieve differently so the curriculum has to cater to the lowest level, but…
Recognize and name 7-8 letters?
Name all letters in first name?
Recite the alphabet? (Maybe I should have him do it backwards for her.) 🙂
Count to 10?
Read numerals 0-10?
I seriously hope he’s not bored to tears with the language arts and math.
I had considered sending the teacher a brief email alerting her that he’s more advanced in those areas (because I think it’s a 50/50 crap shoot if he shows he’s smart or just plays along), but on the advice of friends, I’ll be waiting a few weeks to give the teacher time to notice herself (friends say she’ll likely notice right away and give him advanced work). Of course I just want everything to go perfectly, but I don’t want to be a helicopter parent…so we’ll just see how it goes.
