[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is compacted math ever an option to a highly gifted 3rd grader (instead of having to wait until 4th)?[/quote] Yes it is. My DC told me about 2 student in his school now that are in 3rd grade who take compact math with the 4th graders. [/quote] You have to fight like hell for it. It's generally not worth it because there is very little new math between 5th grade and algebra, so it's easy for kids to jump to their appropriate level when they start middle school, regardless of ES class. [/quote] There is definitely new math between 5th grade and Algebra. Further, it’s the depth of application, manipulation, and beginning to think abstractly that matters. Most kids are not “jumping” levels unless they were already above level or do some prep in the summer Access your kids math aptitude and desire. Kids have to take math every year of HS.[/quote]
