[quote=Anonymous]This thread was hijacked but back to lower and upper el classes I have a child in 2nd grade and we are so thrilled with the work that they do. It’s so much more expansive than what I see at typical schools. They are also big on independence with going outs, reports on any subject, etc. Also the method of how they teach math is very tactical and physical. So when I see parents complaining about common core and I look at the work it is actually similar to Montessori method (teaching in units, tens, thousands etc vs memorization. I knew it was awesome when my 5 year old brought home a division problem in the millions and it was right (I used a calculator to check lol) I would sincerely say to anyone wondering ask a parent in an upper grade, do an observation or see if the school offers any educational programs.
