[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you asking about how parents supplement their FCPS aap child (3rd grade plus), and your child is four or less?[/quote]

OP. My child is at home with me this year for various reasons but I plan to enroll said kid in school in fall of next year or possibly in spring. I taught my child to read when 3y during the pandemic and it was a great gift bc now reading fluently at 6y and enjoys it very much. Finding that while at home it's almost impossible not to accelerate past peers when just doing 2-3 hrs a day of focused, traditional academic activities. My concern is that when said child goes to "real" school, learning will actually slow down bc is too far ahead and also less time per day devoted to actually academic work.

Agree with the poster that it is a golden age of strivers. We are not putting any pressure on our kid. It's just a core value of ours that if a child can learn, they should learn and achieve their potential rather than be idle so as not to get too far ahead.  [/quote]
