My ds started primary 1 in August. (We live in Scotland)
I have spoken to his teacher about his reading and how he finds it easy. I was told that she did try him on the next level but he didn't know the words and so she could not move him on. However when he is at home he reads at least 150 words and phonics stories that we bought for him. Should I discuss this again at parents night or should I just carry on myself?
He can also do addition and subtraction easily and yet they have not even started that. I was told he is not an "early finisher" but I know that he will work through any work he is given and just do as he is told without saying that he is finding it easy.
I am worried that eventually he will be bored and start hating school or misbehaving.
Another problem I have is that I do relief work (learning support and classroom assistant) at the school and so I do not want the teacher to think that I feel I know better than her.
Any suggestions?
