John & Becky Bunting

I don’t have access to my pictures (long story about John and computers) and all I’ve been doing lately is working, but I have a question that I thought I would post and see what everyone thinks.

My brother has a really smart little kid. He is in 1st grade and reads at least 5th grade level with excellent comprehension and expression when reading out loud. I think he does pretty well in all the other subjects, but reading is definitely his best subject. My brother asked what I (or anyone else who read his blog) thought about kids skipping a grade level. My nephew turned 7 in January and is in a combined 1st/2nd grade class now (small school). Anybody have any opinions??? It doesn’t have to be about this specific situation, I am just curious to see what people think in general.
