[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 607056, member: 14557"] Good to hear you have some services available. When it comes to school, J is bright boy and very young. If school is not offering a good environment for him right now, taking him off, is the best thing to do. Actual academics won't take too much of your time yet anmd it may be easier to train other school skills separately right now. I of course don't have any idea what Moroccan law says about home schooling, but if it is flexible, I would concentrate almost solely to reading, math and bit of writing. Everything else is rather irrelevant in this point. And how you have described J, I would research alternative, and active, teaching methods. Make him jump back and forth his math problems or teach math while cooking etc. Write words with your finger to his neck and let him read those etc. Things like that. Sitting still on the chair with books and pens is often not the best way for lively little guy to learn. I'm sure there are lots of alternative (American mostly, I guess) sources for early learning in web. You have couple of years to teach him strong foundation in reading and math before he actually has to learn anything else academically. That should leave you a lot of time to concentrate his social skills and group skills. Waiting your turn, being calm and sitting still and all those things. [/QUOTE]
