[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 3rd grader and he took the tests this year (just finished). It was a series of 5 tests spread out over several months. Our DS didn't prep and I don't know anyone else who prepped. If your son is naturally gifted in math he will do fine, if he is not don't try to force him into a group that isn't a good fit skill-wise. The world does not begin and end with compacted math![/quote] +1. To my knowledge, there is no way to prep for these tests. Noone has any clue what's on them.[/quote] [quote]he tried to use something his Dad taught him at home to solve it. He got it wrong. [/quote] +2 And this is one of the reasons why maybe parents shouldn't try to teach their kids alternate ways of doing math unless they have a firm grasp of the concept. Sometimes, it can confuse the kids. We have never had outside tutors for DC, nor do we have set aside time where we teach them at home. [/quote]
