[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]But the math standards in the early grades are very comparable to Singapore Math, which they actually used in Singapore, so either children develop differently in Singapore, or the standards are not inappropriate for child development. [/quote] Have you ever been to Singapore? Gorgeous place--[b]but you better not do anything wrong there[/b]. Not exactly the model I want.[/quote] How are Singapore's laws about gum-chewing (etc.) relevant to whether or not it's appropriate to (for example) expect children to be able to understand subtraction as an unknown-addend problem by the end of first grade?[/quote] ..because this is what people on here do all the time when they have nothing else intelligent to add. They nit-pick at something unrelated, like the grammar or spelling, or in this case, Singapore laws.[/quote]
