This kid boggles my mind with his reading abilities. I picked up some children's chapter books and he can read a whole chapter in under 3 minutes. It's amazing. He is reading a Magic Treehouse book right now and then wants to start Courage the Cowdog. I require 2 chapters a day plus 1 non-fiction book a day (he picked to learn about cars this week, we've learned how cars work and different types of cars and engines and stuff. Even Mama learned something!)
We will continue with school through the summer, a modified 'year round' schedule. He is almost done with his Scholastic Success! 1st grade so I need to order the 2nd grade option. He's completely through the maps and reading section, almost done with the Math and grammar sections and plugging along on writing.
I am contemplating forcing him to write a book report, that will help with sentence structure, reading comprehension and penmanship. Mean old mom that I am.
