[quote=Anonymous]What throws me is the person with homework that is "more challenging than a review of multiplication facts." That's not what I've seen so far. Makes me wonder whether all schools are really doing the same thing. 17:31: Agree on making sure kids have good, solid understanding. In principle, I agree with doing a curriculum that makes more sense and doesn't spiral like the last one. But I have a 6th grader who thrived in the old math curriculum and is now in math magnet. He needed faster and more challenging math and he got it. His 4th grade brother (at HGC and in compacted math) has consistently shown need for far more than he's been getting. Feels like years and years of waiting for the system to catch up to meeting his needs. Wish I was seeing something stronger for him.[/quote]
