[quote=Anonymous]I've had the same experience with my 1st grader -- she's happy at school but really doesn't seem to have learned anything. We plan on adding a math supplement next year (because she enjoys math and has been asking for more math challenges). I'm not really sure I care about learning factual content, but I do with there was more encouragement of natural curiosity, more longterm/larger projects, and fewer worksheets (that seem very repetitive and which she claims to finish very quickly -- a claim I believe given the very detailed drawings on the back of the worksheet that she does once the work is complete). My reaction to her experience so far makes me think we'll end up in private by the end of elementary if she is admitted to a good school. [/quote]
