We got DS's report yesterday, and he got 1B for reading, 1B for writing and 1A for maths. School said expected level for end of Year 1 was 1A.
DS has only just turned 6, and has spent a lot of time in Year 1 getting used to sitting and concentrating iyswim, and I am wondering whether younger children like him might make more progress in Year 2 as they are bit more mature - ie he might not stay below average, but speed up a bit? What do you think? School says that children that are 1A now are likely to be 2A at the end of Year 2, which is their expected level (and obviously where I would like him to be).
I guess I am asking, when do younger children 'catch up' with their older peers - I look at some of the demure girls in his class and think that if he could be as still as them in class, he might learn more lol.
