[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is a fifth grader and is in compacted math. This is not intended as a humblebrag, in fact I suspect it's a negative sign about the way compacted math is taught at his elem school, but he has not found compacted math challenging at all. The pace is quicker but the work is still simple, rote and boring to him.  We hoped that there would be greater enrichment in compacted math, but really it is just a faster pace and not "deep thinking" kind of math. [/quote]

I totally agree with you. My son always says it's boring. Everyone in his class feels the same way according to my son. FYI my son doesn't get outside supplement. [/quote]

My kid always says it's boring too. That doesn't mean that she's not learning anything. That means that she has to do stuff in class that she doesn't want to do, and doesn't get to do stuff in class that she does want to do.[/quote]

+1  same for my DC in HGC and compacted math, though DC would rather be at home than in school.  No, DC is not a genius, just a kid who would rather play video games than most anything else.  DC is always complaining school is boring.[/quote]
