[quote=Anonymous]We stopped supplementing during the school year beginning in 6th grade. My kid's "pre-algebra for 6th graders" teacher assigned tons and tons of IXL homework so my kid was doing an hour plus of math every night, basically every IXL in the app that was available for 6th, 7th and 8th graders. That was as much math as my kid was willing to do and seemed to be enough practice. For many of those IXLs, even if my kid knew how to do the problems, they still took a long time because there was lots of arithmetic to be done. Big numbers and lots of long division and fractions. So my kid knew how to do it but it took a while to crank through the problems. And if you make even one arithmetic mistake, your smart score drops, so then you have to do even more problems to get to 100%.[/quote]
