[quote=Anonymous]When my DD was that age, I thought she was "advanced," and I was saddened that she wasn't learning three digit multiplication. The teacher assured me that allowing her to dump out all of the puzzles available in the classroom at the same time and racing with a classmate to finish to get them done before recess was challenge enough. Fast forward to 4th grade...she was several levels above in math and reading at a high school level (challenging to find appropriate books)...and to high school...her spatial awareness and problem solving skills are exceptional and...she's HAPPY. Guess what. Her peers caught up to her in reading. In math, she's more or less on grade level. A great student, but not the top. Let your kid be happy and play. [/quote]
