My Jordan

My Jordan needs to be challenged. It all comes so easy and naturally for him, which is such a great blessing! So last weekend he was tested for the accelerated learning program for next year. 4 hours of testing. There are only 24 sopts available and hundreds of children were at the testing. He has received straight A's even A+'s since Kinder. I have always given him extra work at home-- math, spanish, spelling etc etc he is so bored at school but loves the social interaction. We hope he gets in. After I picked him up I asked him a little anxiously how it went and again he mentioned how he was so bored and it was the easiest test he had taken and wished he brought a bigger book to read after the test was over. So now the responsibility rests on me, at least for the time being, to give him a challenge, one he will enjoy so he will still have a love of learning. I taught him long division today, a different way than they do at school and he actually thanked me for teaching him something he didn't already know. Crazy!!
