How skipping grades affected our son socially and academically
skip grades
Two years ago, we were invited to skip our son "Johnny" ahead from first grade to second mid-year. My husband was a bit insufferable about it, bragging to a number of our friends about how well Johnny was doing academically. This really bugged me at first but I ultimately decided I couldn't control another adult's mouth and stopped worrying about it -- though I tried to lessen the damage by telling our friends about some of the tougher parts of skipping a kid ahead.
Two years later, it's clear that Johnny was socially unready to skip grades; he also has a late birthday and so was almost two years younger than most of his classmates. In the fall, he'll be starting third grade for the second time.
skip aheadとskip gradesは「飛び級する」ということでしょうか?よろしくお願いします
