[quote=Anonymous]This is hard. I never was successful in getting what I would consider appropriate work in K-3, especially in math. I tried a few times and ended up giving up. My child was not complaining and just happy to try to finish the work quickly and help classmates. He is at the HGC now. A few things I learned though. Part of the problem is that the teacher may not even realize how advanced your daughter is because there has been no way to for her to show it. Other than MAP-P the school itself has no data points. Perhaps outside testing would help, but I am really not sure that is worth the expense. I would ask for a quick chat with the teacher to explain how your daughter is discouraged and get the teacher's perspective. And by all means encourage your daughter to keep reading at home and doing extra math work if she is interested. Good luck.[/quote]
