Thank you so much! I actually did speak with the teacher ( in the begining of the school year)about his background. However, her words were"she doesn't see he's gifted" and how she expected him to know everything?! Obviously, she has a lot to learn about gifted children. I think maybe because he's less out spoken than most of the kids in the class she under estimates him.

With that said, she's aware of his reading skills way above his level(third) and math but yet doesn't see his talents. I even mentioned how new everything is to him and how he just needs to adjust to it all. I was very nice about talking to her and didn't want to seem as if "my child if gifted". His report cards are excellent and I hope next year his teachers are a lot more understanding if not, I will have to take it up with the principal. Thanks for your advice!
