[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 553876, member: 7664"] Oh, what J is doing (counting up on fingers) is so completely age appropriate! He's doing it the way 5 year olds should! Please do not discourage him from doing this and please do find items for him to manipulate to further his learning of maths. And please know, for "reading", the precursor to actually knowing words is to take clues from stories and also to memorize the stories that have been read to him. He sounds like he is doing well for his age. But I do hear you that his school might teach him differently, please know that it really sounds like he is learning the way specialists in early childhood say he should be! [/QUOTE]
