[quote=Anonymous]DS just entered 1st grade from a small private school. It seems that he is ahead of the level of instruction in the class. He's not bored, thanks to the newness of everything, but I can see it coming. We've never intentionally accelerated him beyond what he has done in school and are wondering whether we should try to have him continue to work at a higher level (esp in math). I understand that MCPS no longer accelerates in math - so we are afraid that if we do that at home, he will loose his ability to learn in new concepts from his teachers and tune out in school. Are all schools county wide teaching the same curriculum in first grade or are some schools teaching more complex things? I'm confused about how this homogeneous approach handles kids at different levels [/quote]
