[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. We consistently had (female) ES teachers underestimating our DD’s math abilities because: (a) she was pretty bored and do not claim To love math, (b) she didn’t jump at the chance to do extra enrichment work and (c) she was not a fast calculator - she hadn’t jumped on the opportunity to memorize kultiplication tables, so long fusion was painfully slow for a while!! But, she got concepts the 1st time and had high MAP-M scores. She has done fine on the advanced math track and in IM. I don’t know why people says it moves extra fast. ES teachers are notorious for underestimating firls’ sTEM capabilities (google it, there’s a NYT article). Listen to the teacher, but follow your instincts.[/quote]
