[quote=Anonymous]It starts in third at our school (my DD is in the class) but I have heard that the "full grade level acceleration" happens in fifth grade. In third grade and fourth grade, it seems like they go at a faster pace and delve more deeply into the material -- but that they are learning the same curriculum as the general class (perhaps by the end of year, that will change and they'll do more 4th grade work). I have heard that fifth grade is the critical year where they move ahead more quickly in an effort to prepare the kids for potentially testing high enough to start algebra in middle school. In other words, while it's great to be in advanced math in third and fourth grade for the faster pace and the acceleration, the real year of importance is in fifth grade. [/quote]
