[quote=Anonymous]Varies by grade. Sometimes language arts is easier than math. Glad to see parts of the curriculum is challenging for some (in a good way, hopefully). Our K-3 experience was not about academics but about the socializing aspect (including listening to teachers, following directions, navigating friendships, etc.). 4-5 was at a CES, which is challenging for the average keen student (maybe not for the .001% genius, though). Since you are not from around here, you are likely used to more challenging ES math. The American way is to formally introduce advancement in math in middle school. Some kids are introduced to advanced math ideas earlier via parents (either because they are scientists or they outsource). Some kids are introduced to advanced language arts via parents. Schools have to teach to all sorts of students.[/quote]
