[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What kind of questions was your child asked? Content questions or logic? My kid keeps getting pulled out for enrichment by the math specialist but they do logic brain bending stuff not anything that would be taught in the classroom. [/quote] My child was tested last year. He said some of the tasks were "fun" logic problems. I got the impression that explaining the answers was a big part of the test. Just getting the right answer was not enough. Sounded like if you asked for a hint then points were taken off. [/quote] I'm the PP you are responding to. DC said the first problem they did, they was told that everybody got it wrong but to try in anyway.[/quote] And also that they are asked to do the problems in silence with the teacher (not class teacher) watching them and taking notes, so they aren't allowed to ask for help. Does this sound like the same thing? My kid at a DTSS school[/quote]
