[quote=Anonymous]In my opinion, you don’t need to pay anyone to supplement for a kid that young. Take home to the library to check out more advanced books, get some math games to play at home, have him help you measure and bake, let him add up coins to an amount you set, take him to museums, historical sites, and on hikes. Choose units to study at home and do related activities and learning about that topic (example: solar system — make a model solar system, read books about it, and visit the air & space museum. Or ancient Egypt— learn about Egyptian numbers (& do some math problems with them), learn some hieroglyphics, build a lego pyramid, and mummify an apple.) This kind of stuff is much more valuable to a 5-6 yo than extra worksheets or something. My kids are older now, but that’s the kind of stuff we did with them at that age. [/quote]
