[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^Forgot to add: The types of kids who end up accelerated in math usually LOVE math. It's a travesty to take a kid's favorite school subject and turn it into a boring slog. It also tends to make them dislike school as a whole. [/quote] Why not just have them go extra deep instead of being more accelerated that seems like a better approach (but probably more work for the teacher/school system)[/quote] You can do both, but you'll need to do it on your own and not expect much from the public school system. It's much easier to meet the needs of mathematically gifted in a homeschool setting.[/quote] You can do both but personally I'd focus on going deep with AOPS or a tutor vs accelerating more.. it's not a race and your kid will probably benefit from taking classes post Linear Algebra at the university he or she is attending vs taking them at a local college while in high school.
