My son is bored in class and is given advanced work. Is this ok?

At my son’s Parent Teacher Conference this past February, his Kindergarten teacher told me she saw him getting bored in class because of his ability to understand the concepts so quickly. So she came up with a plan (and I agreed to it), to teach him all Kindergarten level material, and while the other children were working on the sheets (with the teacher’s assistant) she would sit with him and teach him 1st grade reading and math. It worked and he was liking it. Is this the way to do it? Just want to be sure. And then, how should we approach 1st grade now in August?
