[quote=Anonymous]We've been through two different FCPS schools. The math differentiation in K-2 is highly dependent on the individual teacher. There are more structured pull-outs for advanced reading, but there doesn't seem to be anything systematic for advanced math in the early years. Some teachers offer more advanced worksheets, some set up math-based projects, some point the kid to Dreambox for self-paced math work. AAP level 3 (part time / some subjects) or level 4 (full time for all subjects) start in third grade. If the child is found eligible for level 3 or level 4 services, (s)he'll get advanced classes as appropriate from 3rd grade on. AAP math compresses the curriculum so that by 5th grade they've completed the regular 6th grade math.[/quote]
