[quote=Anonymous]My DD is in compacted math at an HGC and I do not think it is challenging at all. She did accelerated math as a 2nd grader (2 years ago) and did what was called 4th grade math at that time and was very challenged and loved math. Last year, the acceleration ended and she had to do "regular 3rd grade math" under 2.0 as it was called and, that was a joke - very simplistic. So, this year as a 4th grader, she's doing 4/5 compacted math and, guess what, it is still not as challenging as the math she was able to do in 2nd grade on the accelerated track. She is 7 weeks into school and her class is doing subtraction and arrays! Something has to give. We are boring these smart math students by forcing them to do the same basics over and over again.[/quote]
