[quote=Anonymous]I have a kid at private in 3rd and agree with the apps suggesting RSM or AoPS — we have resisted so far (to give her time for art, music, sports) but are considering for next fall. That said, I’ve been moderately happy with the math homework my DD brings home. For example, this past week this was one problem: Sergio had 3 times as many books as Davi. After Sergio donated 9 books, and Davi bought another 6 books, Sergio had 3 books more than Davi. How many books did Sergio have at first? This might be still too simple for your kid, but it was appropriate for mine — she figured it out within 10 minutes, but it wasn’t easy breezy and she had to think through it. All this to say, it’s possible schools without a separate math track could differentiate well within a mixed classroom.[/quote]
