[quote=Anonymous]We do a lot of "enrichment" if enrichment is providing access to above grade level, but very much at knowledge level workbooks. My kid is not yet AAP age (and honestly, not sure he would get in due to his ADHD). But he loves math and can complete math workbooks independently. Outside of playing board games or screens or reading, there are not really other activities he reliably chooses for himself, so he goes through a lot of workbooks. We don't do this to get into AAP or make AAP easier, or really anything actively about school. As a kid, I played baseball and was pretty good. I practiced in the backyard during the off season. My parents encouraged me by providing access and maybe sometimes pushing me if, but generally just supporting. I didn't practice to make it easier to be on travel teams or have to practice less to stay on them. I practiced because it was something I enjoyed and wanted to be good at. [/quote]
