[quote=Anonymous]Totally felt the way you did when mine was in 1st. Now in 4th, and while she's learning ... it's almost like the teacher spends a month on a concept that it takes a day for her to learn. I supplement outside of school hours. I try to intellectually stimulate the hell out of her. So, school teaches nouns and verbs? So I build on that and teach proper nouns and adverbs and adjectives. They gear her up to begin learning how to convert fractions to percentages? I teach her to do that in her head, without paper. The reality is I have to work out of the house, full time, so can't homeschool her, and can't afford private school. So we'll simply have to make due with what we've got, and get all she possibly can out of the school she's in. [/quote]
