[quote=Anonymous]Sorry, hit send too soon ^^. The whole class lessons are a short 15 minute phonics lesson (just like K, but far more obviously) and a 30 minute collaborative math class lesson with each kid having their own workbook. Kids who already know the material start on the practice and challenge problems immediately. By 3-5, there is also free tutoring afterschool for those behind grade level and an enrichment program for those ahead. IME my bright kids love school and do not complain about being bored. They love their teachers & friends and all of the great enrichment activities and have consistently stayed ahead of grade level in math and ELA. Might they be more ahead in a pressure cooker AAP environment in the burbs? Sure. But I don't worry that they aren't learning enough and this balance works well for our family.[/quote]
