[quote=Anonymous]None. DC is way above grade level and an avid reader. Usually 20-30 minutes before breakfast, another 15-20 after dinner, plus DH or I reading aloud before bedtime. It's all fun. We love the libraries, and DC picks the books ( we research together on Amazon and DC writes up the book lists and is learning to find the call numbers on the library computer and on the shelves.

For a few days, DC experimented with keeping a reading journal, but it slowed things down too much. So we let it go. Don't want to interfere with the joy of reading in any way.

As for math, it's part of everyday life, just as PP described. Multiplication seems to a big theme lately. We're finding tons of examples/problems to talk about in daily life.

Also doing some programming ousting the free Scratch website. DC likes to figure things out solo, so we're skipping the how/to books for now.

The rest of the time us camp, silly play with younger DC, bike rides, pool, play dates, errands, and a few favorite TV shows. No worksheets, flash cards, homework etc. [/quote]
