My dd is very bright, however she rushes ahead of herself and does not follow or read instructions well as she PRE empty and think she knows what she is doing and will inevitably struggle with simple activities like playing games, doing math home work using the computer.
I'm concerned about the effects this has on her learning. She was moved from top maths set to receiving extra help when entering y2 and they told me where she was struggling and these where all areas she is capable of doing if she stops to listen to or read instructions. I told her teacher I felt this was the problem and that all she needs is a reminder to follow what she is being instructed. After a few weeks the teacher agreed this was the case she returned to her usual group with just the necessary prompts.
Recently I have noticed this getting worse, any tips to improve this?
