[quote=Anonymous]I get it done because my kid entered kindergarten already knowing how to read at a second grade level and was doing first grade Singapore Math. I taught him to read, he didn't just pick it up by himself. Once he was ahead it has been easy to stay ahead. Homework is done quickly because it is so easy for him. If he had to actually spend 30 to 60 minutes on homework we wouldn't have time to afterschool. I don't ask for additional work for him at home because I prefer to teach him math at home. Just remember there are 180 days a year that kids aren't in school. Even if you just afterschool during the non-school days your kid will advance a year working at home. I use Singapore Math Standards edition (home instructor's guide, textbook, workbook, and challenging word problems.) I also had him memorize his addition/subtraction math facts the summer before 1st grade and his multiplication facts the summer before 2nd grade. [/quote]
