Any advice on how to approach this.  We've had somewhat of a wait and see attitude, but DD is now in 2nd grade and is definitely not being challenged in math AT ALL.  This year has been terrible.  Not quite sure how to push for this.  [/quote]

I would start by asking for her MAP-P scores.  Note that the teacher may not want to give them.  If not try asking in the office.  At least then you will have some data.

The first time I tried to push for any math acceleration the teacher invented a behavior issue so I was afraid to do much that year or any other.   Now in 5th and in compacted math at HGC.   Sure it could move a little faster but i don't need my 5th grader having to go to the middle school for math.   Looking back I wish I knew not to expect anything in terms of acceleration in early ES.  In the end I think it will be fine and I wish I worried less about it in the early grades.    Have her do puzzles and online stuff at home if she is interested.
