Sincere Doing Addition and Math

Sincere has been doing addition and subtraction for a while now and his skills continue to get better. At this point I would say he is doing 3rd grade math work. But I got worried once I heard he would be heading to a K where they were doing a math program called Everyday Math. I wasn't worried that he could do the work but I was worried that he might find it confusing since he had already been doing the old school way that I was taught. Since his K is a G&T they will start Everyday Math at the 1st grade level so I figured I should see if I could figure out how to do it. I don't know if this is the right way but I do think it's a good sign that he is learning there is more than one way to solve the problem. And I was pleasantly surprised he caught on to it right away.
