My son just turned 7. He's in first grade. Since the beginning of school this year, his teacher noticed that he is advanced in reading. Of course my wife & I already knew. So she started giving him chapter books to read that are 3rd grade level. Well, he started to breeze through those. She gave him higher level books - 5th grade, then 6th grade. He is breezing through those too.
Just realized two months ago that he is advanced in math also. They give the little math cards to do review with your kids, very simple math like 12 + 7, or 13 - 9, etc. He was doing those just so easy that I thought I would put him to the test. So I asked him to add 2 2-digit numbers, like 55 + 38. He figures it up in his head and spits out the answer in like 10 seconds. So I then ask him to add 2 3-digit numbers, like 327 + 489, and he does that too haha! No paper, all in is head - takes about 10-15 seconds.
God blessed my little guy which we are so thankful for, and I'm so proud of him.
