Hi. This is my first post,looks like a good site for advice.
My daughter is in year 3 at primary school and has always been bright when it comes to maths and english.For the last 3 years she and one other pupil has been taken out of their class twice a week to work with year 4 + pupils on more challenging maths and english. Along with the fact that she is can read from any of the years reading and pick books from home, i think she is finding peer pressure very hard to deal with.
She said to me last night that all her friends are normal and that some of her pupils call certain children nerds etc etc.
Also the whole boyfriend thing is popping up and she thinks the reason a certain boy might not like her is because she is different- these are not my words, this is what she was saying.How do/did you deal with this. Felt so sorry for her and said to not worry what others think but it did not make any difference.
Thanks jem
