[quote=Anonymous]My dc had a first grade teacher who really challenged kids and gave them opportunities for enrichment. I remember dc bringing home a book being read in her reading group about the different forms of government. They were learning about the differences between democracies, monarchies, oligarchies, theocracies, autocracies, etc. I was amazed. The reading group also read a story about a girl who had to do a project on Egypt, so the teacher told them they had the option to do a project (not for a grade) on Egypt and present it to the whole class if they wanted to. I couldn’t believe the time and effort dc devoted to this project. Sadly, dc didn’t have enrichment like that again until the CES in 4th grade, but at least dc had a second grade teacher who had students work on cursive writing and learning to type properly when they’d finish their work early. I think they used Typing Club.[/quote]
