I go with number 4 also. My son has been reading for a while now, but I really didn't realize how much he knew until he started reading for other family members. I avoid testing my son and for the most part he prefers I read everything while he sits back and takes it in. He has an amazing memory and loves learning and reading new words. Every night he asks for "his words and so I write down a list of words, most of them being his first time seeing, and he reads them. My challenge now is figuring out where to go from here. He reads/speaks in any of the several languages he is learning when he feels like it, which happens to be everyday
As for math he doesn't show us much. From time to time, but not at all like reading. Nonetheless I continue with LR in addition to having completed Shichida and Doman. He enjoys it very much and so I continue doing it with him. I plan to begin two other math programs with him in the near future and continue to have fun as we have in the past. Since beginning the math program he continued to get the problem solving questions correct once we started the equations part and counts to 100. Some months ago we were shopping and he saw a shirt that had the number 91 on it and he said "Mom look that's the number 91" Even though he doesn't show us much I do not get discouraged from teaching him, I stay motivated in knowing that he is taking it all in
Thanks for starting such an interesting post Trinity Papa! I thought about this a lot when my son started reading. You seem to have a lot on your plate in addition to all that you do with your daughter. She is very fortunate to have you as her dad and keep doing what you are doing. Remember to have fun and whenever possible take some time for yourself as well.
