[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone go to mathnasium if their child is advanced? What is the program like in that case?[/quote] We started taking our DD to Mathnasium BECAUSE she is advanced. She was going into compacted math, and I was concerned that the faster pace might leave areas that are not sufficiently covered. This is a concern because math is a cumulative subject so even if a kid starts out advanced, without the proper foundation they can start to struggle very quickly. We’ve been doing it about 8 months now. My child started out loving it and telling me that it helped a lot. Her MAP scores jumped dramatically. As the months have gone by, she’s less enthusiastic about it (no longer begs me to take her everyday) but she still really likes it. At her age and location, it’s only costing us $200 a month. At that price, I see no reason to pull her out, even though she seems to have plateaued there. [/quote]
