What is your preppy doing at school??

[Lulu]

Hi all,

I was just wondering if you could help me - I'm a bit stressed about keeping DS up with schoolwork. I know he is pretty ahead on alot of things but that isn't important to me. I need to make sure I am laying down proper foundations in the ABC, 123 department.

If you child is in prep (vic) or the first year of 'big school' would you mind telling me what they are doing schoolwise?

Are they writing/recognising the full alphabet? Writing words? Recognising simple words or sounding them out.

Are they doing equations, times tables in maths?

It's a long story, I'm homeschooling blind and I want to get him ready to go back next year with all the right tools for Yr1.

If you want the full explanation click my (ds's) blog link at the bottom. I can't be arsed explaining it all

I'd really appreciate it if you could help out

TIA

ETA - I need to point out that he started school this year but didn't cope. I don't want him to repeat first year (not possible anyway), so I need to start him back in year one (the year after prep 'big school'). I'm not getting him ready to start his first year, ready to start his second.
