[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, there seems to be a mythical narrative on this board about student performance. For example, the other week there was a parent claiming that 270 was a common map-m score for the mid-4th grade. MCPS stats are slightly higher than the national average. MCPS publishes this but it's only slightly higher. 270 is not a common score, especially for 4th graders. Of course, this has happened but requires a lot of outside enrichment since kids don't teach the concepts to themselves and this isn't happening without exposure.[/quote]

My kid was always self taught using Khan Academy during regular school instruction time when teacher was busy with kids need extra help at his home school. Now in regional CES 4th grade, MAP-M winter score 269. My kid's MAP-R is always over 99% but is lower than MAP-M, coz there is no self-taught of grammar available through MCPS.

My little one at home school is now in pull-out learning for math concept introduction 2 years in advance. But this only happens once in a while when teacher is not busy, most of the time he is self taught using Khan Academy as well.

I never signed them up for any outside enrichment in math or reading. They learned basic arithmetic concept at preschool. All the rest of learning is self-driven and self-taught.[/quote]
