[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd consider a 4th grader, doing work beyond 6th grade level, mathematically gifted. [/quote] So in one breath you’re criticizing the math standards and curricula in the US and FCPS and complaining about how kids in other countries are years ahead of our kids. Then you use the above as your excuse to sign your kids up for math enrichment so as to try and keep up with the world. Then in the other breath you’re going on and on about how you know your ds is mathematically gifted...Because he’s two years ahead of the “lackluster” US standards? I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle. You’ve got a bright kid (like your dd) whom from a young age you’ve pushed into studying math grade levels ahead which isn’t that hard to do if you’ve got the materials. The US standards are by no means the limit of what is possible of bright kids. [/quote]
