We are in year two with this. DD HATES HATES HATES it. It is just not right for her. I have used adaptive software with her brothers for years but I feel like her teachers think it is me not being cooperative.I'm telling school this week that it can not be assigned for us, expecting pushback.

Ours is an extra program, not a set homework assignment. It seems to be one of the better ones out there as far as computer math programs go. DC uses it once a week at home and then once or twice a week in class to keep busy while the teacher is working with someone else. I doubt my kid would get more time with the teacher without the program and we like that the problems are given at the level of the child with emails to the parents telling us what each child mastered.

DS hates it too. The thrill quickly wore off. I don't like it either. He has assignments as part of the homework and we are down to completing the minimum. He usually loves to go online for anything. The same thing happened with reflex math and IXL last year. IXL is gone and reflex is our optional program.
