[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, my preschooler at a play-based preschool progressed exactly the same level without any supplemental classes. It is a natural development. He can do simple math, count high, write letters and numbers, etc. There has been a huge spike in his learning from age 4.5 until this month when he turned 5. I didn't supplement at all for my first child and he was pulled out for gifted. My kids are very creative and surprise the hell out of me with the way they approach and solve problems. Firstborn wasn't reading when he started K a year ago and by June he was at a second grade level. I think this Kumon crap at 4 is sapping kids of real learning/natural brain development. Rote facts and memorization is not real intelligence. Think outside the box.[/quote] I don't do any outside supplementation...but rote facts are required for math facts.[/quote]
