[quote=Anonymous]Often times, what you see as work sheets in a private school have foundational material around it. In other words, it isn't just the work sheets they are learning to master, but a deeper understanding of theory (to the extent a 3rd or 4th grader can handle it). What this means is when they do get to Algebra and Geometry, they can master that more easily because of the work they have done in previous years. Any correlation between how I learned math and what the kids are getting today is minimal. They are doing things at a much younger age and with high proficiency. It is more than just spitting out right answers.[/quote]
