[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So just to confirm, for folks saying their kid had no extra exposure/supplementation, there were no math games, workbooks, parental discussions, or other ways they would have been taught about things like fractions, decimals, area, angles, multi-digit multiplication or division, etc, before they came up in school, correct? But they were still able to score above 210ish/above the 85th percentile or so?[/quote] Answer a question or show them how to do something because it comes up naturally or in some game, sure. Go out of the way to teach them math concepts they haven’t asked about them or asked for more advance material, No. Like a PP said, some kids brains are just able to figure out the next step or creative ways to do problems. If that’s not your kid it’s fine. There is no need to rush math. Better to get a solid foundation. There’s way too many kids struggling in or immediately after compacted math or having to be tutored.
