[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Level II is subject specific material. At most schools it amounts to some extra worksheets and maybe an advanced reading group.

Level III starts in 3rd grade. It is supposed to be a one hour a week pull out that focuses on creative thinking and problem solving. Some schools hold it regularly, some schools don't. My son enjoyed it.

Advanced Math is the math acceleration that starts in 3rd grade, at some schools, and 5th grade at other schools. Kids in Advanced math will end up "skipping" sixth grade math, they compact 5th and 6th grade math. At schools where they start in 3rd grade, they compact 3-5th grade math.  Compacting the math is probably the wrong term but they math moves more quickly so that they kids complete 6th grade math by the end of 5th grade. In 6th grade they take Math 7 and might be eligible for Algebra 1 H in 7th grade. [/quote]

I think, per the below, some of this has changed and Level III is now subject specific. I'm unaware of Advanced Math!?[/quote]

LII started as early as K, DS was in reading and math LII in first and second grade. He was accepted into LIV for third grade but we deferred. His school did not have LLIV so he did LIII and Advanced Math. I have seen people post about LII existing in 1-6 grade, it was a different level then LIII and Advanced Math.

Advanced Math has been it's own program for years. [/quote]
