[quote=Anonymous]We found the homework in 3rd grade to be much more than it was in 4th or 5th, and then it picked back up again in 6th. In our AAP center, the AAP kids have science every day, and spelling work is an occasional thing. There are a lot of projects and writing that are done at school only, mainly so the work is genuinely that of the kids and not of the parents. The kids were expected to do short answer (paragraph) type answers on tests and short essays on tests starting in 5th. Wordmasters and math contests are given as part of the curriculum. The curriculum has seemed a lot more challenging than what my other ds recieved in general ed. There is a distinct lack of busy work in AAP, and the assignments given often have requirements that allow the kids to capitalize on their strengths, but require them to push themselves in areas that aren't.[/quote]
