[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, I hear you. My kids are also better at ELA, particularly my youngest now in 8th who reads books I read in college regularly and with great understanding, which her teachers can’t believe. She also writes incredible plays. public school ELA can be very boring, as they lean formulaic writing and only read a book a year (yes, really). [/quote] Yeah, I think this is the crux of it. Kids who are math whizzes get positive reinforcement and opportunities for nurturing of those skills in most public schools. But kids who are advanced in reading and writing don’t; they usually have to take the same grade-level curriculum with their peers until 11th grade.[/quote]
