[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some answers: Kid was part of a pre school research study, plus school testing since pre k, so lots of tests already. Yes, the school testing does provide current grade equivalent. Reading test includes comprehension, vocab etc. It's not just a decoding exercise. [b]Yes, child is currently doing (simple) algebra and plenty of math beyond my ability to recall.[/b] Doesn't complain about being bored. Reads constantly (and yes, lots of non fiction - will happily read encyclopedias cover to cover). Does math for fun (long multiplication, calculating area, square root etc) without worksheets or homework. Asks lots of questions, sops up info like a sponge. Generally I think is doing just fine and doesn't need any extra support but sometimes I wonder if we should be doing more to challenge our child. Thanks for the suggestions. [/quote] Do you think that your child has the foundation in math to take Algebra 1 in the fall?[/quote]
