[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's only partially about a more challenging curriculum. [b]It's also about being in class with kids who learn at the same pace and don't need as much repetition,[/b] so more of the curriculum can be covered in the same amount of time. Also, it's nice to be with kids who don't make fun of you for being smart and liking to read. [/quote] I would be more willing to buy this if there weren't so many kids needing tutors to keep up with AAP and so much homework now be given because so many of these "advanced" kids seem to need the repetition to get it. [/quote] This is why they need to narrow the program down to only the highest of gifted kids. We keep being told each year that our DC will finally "meet a challenge" each year in AAP. She' still only in 4th grade, but we have yet to see that "challenge." Now, I'm happy that she never has to spend time on homework or studying because it certainly makes our time management a little easier in the house.[/quote]
