Hello,
I was in a waiting room today and my child was doing a maths game. Someone told me they worked with children and asked me how old the child was. I told them that they were 4, they then told me the child seemed gifted. I have heard this from a nursery teacher and a few friends.
My child can sum, subtract, multiply and divide. They can do simple fractions like 1/2 and 1/4. Their vocabulary is vast. They have started to read but only simple words.
This child consumes vast amounts of information and is always asking to learn more. They ask Alexa for times table song, they finish everything I give them. The challenge for me is that they never stop. So I guess my question is.
- Do they sound gifted?
- What resources (magazines, pages, apps) can I give them access to that are fun and they can learn?
I want to foster their natural curiosity but do not want to feel crazy pressure to perform at such an early age.
I appreciate any guidance.
