[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are like yours, OP.[b] Their teachers focus on having them work on the learning apps provided in Clever -- Lexia, iReady, Reflex, etc. On the elementary school level, these apps are very, very good, because they provide the solid basis kids need to advance quickly once in middle/high school.[/b] I myself was placed in a gifted program starting in first grade, and by the time my class graduated high school, most of my classmates would be considered highly successful in DCUM terms. When I remember what I was learning at the elementary level, academically, much of it is the same as what is in those apps.[/quote] NP here. This is really helpful, PP. Can you tell me more about how these apps work in practice? They finish their class work then are assigned work on the apps? They are assigned work on the apps as homework/outside of school? Are they collaborative at all or do the kids work on them individually at their own pace?[/quote]
