I can't see them achieving any other way. It's a scramble and [b]the homework is simply too much.[/b] I have to keep them on target. It's a struggle. We're in the same boat here. I was naturally gifted and found pleasure in learning. I would have embraced the rigor (lonely lonely childhood). I've always been self-driven. I worry about how to create this in my children. It's been very difficult. I supplement and try to make it fun. I figure confidence and being able to meet the targets will give them a strong start to elementary. The goal is to have them 1) be successful within their program, AND 2) give them a love of learning within the structure. They are provided the structure (the prep) that I sought out on my own. It still takes the same about of effort. For them, it's me supplying the extras. For me, I was the one to seek out and create extra work for myself.

I agree with other posters that whether you prep or not, it's how you perform in class that matters.

---Not AAP but immersion PK4 and dual 1st. I don't mean to intrude on this AAP thread, just wanted to share why we choose to supplement work (or prep) for our children.

The homework is too much at PK 4 and 1st grade?  How much homework are they getting each night?[/quote]
