[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The teacher likely is dealing with some students who are very advanced in math and others who haven't fully learned their multiplication tables yet (yes, even AAP students). [/quote]

My daughter is in 5th grade and has been in AAP since 3rd (in first try, no appeals, excellent GBRS and test scores).  She gets great report cards and excellent marks, but still struggles with learning the multiplication tables. It is a constant struggle.  Things would go much faster for her if she'd just get them down, but she struggles with it.

Just goes to show, not all AAP kids are perfect in every way, and know everything when they come in. :)

OP, my child didn't have homework in 3rd grade AAP for the first month or two.  She never had a ton of it when it started.  It seemed to follow the standard 10 minutes for grade level that I've read about.  However, by the end of the year, she was doing WAY different math than her non-AAP friends.  Hang in there.  :)

My 5th grader (AAP) also struggles with multiplication tables.  She knows them, but not quickly, so the timed tests are a nightmare.  Give her a logic problem, though, and she'll knock your socks off.  they are all kind of uneven, I think.[/quote]
