[quote=Anonymous]We just started MCPS 1st grade this year. DD is very good at math but struggles with language skills. She really doesn't enjoy math in school because its easy for her and she hates trying to figure out all the multiple ways to show your work when she knows the answer or has a more straightforward way to solve the problem. Our school is doing curriculum 2.0 so there is no acceleration and they've only done addition/subtraction all year which she's known since she was five. Even if acceleration was an option, I don't know that she would do well working independently with the way they are teachin math. She loves the math exercises and videos on Khan Academy and has gone through addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. I think they are doing Singapore Math. Its has fewer words, is more visual and is more focused on the numbers.

Does anyone know what Math style MCPS uses for curriculum 2.0? Is there ever the option for the kids to be given a different approach if they learn much better with a different one?
