[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you might find this article interesting: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2016/03/the-math-revolution/426855/[/quote] GREAT Article and thanks for posting it ! The BEAM Summer program at Bard and the Russian School in NYC sound great. Good points on starting with logic in 2nd/ 3rd Grade I also really liked this excerpt from the Atlantic piece: [i]From 2005 to 2007, school officials in Broward County, Florida, concerned that poor kids and English-language learners were being under-referred to gifted programs, gave all second-graders, rich and poor, a nonverbal reasoning test, and the high scorers an IQ test. The criteria for “gifted” status weren’t weakened, but the number of disadvantaged children identified as having the capacity for accelerated learning rose 180 percent.[/i][/quote]
