[quote=Anonymous]We are immigrants and my kids went to public school in MoCo. Every parent from our culture that I know - taught multiplication tables to our children by the end of 2nd grade through rote memorization. Also, at one point my eldest kid's public school had reading program called [b]Accelerated Reader (AR)[/b]. It was a widely used program in schools where students read books and then took computerized quizzes to test their comprehension. Based on their quiz scores, students earned points, and there were often rewards or recognition for hitting certain point milestones. Anyways, those programs seem to have disappeared now. So, I guess you have to DIY an AR program for your kdis. [/quote]
