[quote=Anonymous]Some CES programs assign a fair bit of hw, but other Centers really do not, and want the kids to do the majority of the writing at school (so parents don’t “help”). I also think some kids work differently. My two kids went through the same Center and one had almost no hw because he was naturally efficient and the other takes after me and procrastinated. Ymmv. We also don’t know what the workload would look like at your child’s home school in 4th but maybe you can ask neighbors. Here is what I would do. If my home school offered only Benchmark, I would stay at the CES and figure out some creative ways to support your daughter with managing the workload. Use voice to text if her typing is slow. Have her read simultaneously with the audio book for a multi sensory approach. If my home school offered ELC, I would talk with the teacher and see if she has any guidance, but I would plan to stay at the very least until the end of q1 and then see where you are. I personally think Benchmark is such a limited curriculum for a gifted learner that it would factor highly into my personal decision. [/quote]
