5 year old struggling to learn

Hi all, I’m having a bit of a crisis about my 5 yo son. He was born very premature, 10 weeks early, and although he’s chatty and happy he doesn’t seem able to do fairly simple puzzles, he can’t colour in the lines and he really struggles with fairly simple tasks. I’m not sure at what point I should be concerned and look for further support. His teachers give him extra support with reading and numbers when he’s at school but at home he’s just not interested (which is understandable I suppose). He’s good fun and loves stories so maybe all of this will come but I’m worried and my patience feels like it’s fraying!
