[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't want to be that parent, but my rising 2nd grader worked on problems like this over the summer. They were in a puzzle/logic book. This can't be 6thg grade math, c'mon US Math standards can't be this low.[/quote]

And my 6yo can do this easily in his head but can't read or throw a ball well or do many other things that other 6yos have talent in.  And other people's 4yos taught themselves to read and still others can throw so well they can pitch to a batter.  All our kids have strengths and weaknesses, no need to look for an opportunity to brag about your kids strengths when it has nothing to do with the question ask.[/quote]

She is above average, she is no math genius. This is not an algebra problem, this is a simple logic problem that can be drawn out. They covered fractions in first grade, so she knows what a half is. It blows my mind that this is not being covered until 6th grade, the average kid can absolutely do this work earlier.[/quote]
