[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Accelerated math in 5th and 6th. “Differentiation” in lower grades. [/quote] This is what our base school offered. We let our child stay for 3rd grade and I don't think it was a mistake, per se, but DC was definitely spinning their wheels by the end of the first quarter. There was no differentiation in math, and Level III was just an hour a week of enrichment. Everyone was in agreement that the center would be worth a try for 4th grade. I'm very glad we moved, because DC had no issues adjusting to the accelerated pace. It really varies from school to school, and I would ask a lot of questions about what the differentiation entails at the base school. Not to put to fine a point on it, but I think a lot of schools claim it's happening for all learners, but they're really saying that you can expect above average students to be spending a lot of time helping their peers and playing math games.[/quote]
