[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a really frustrating set up, I wish MCPS would provide actual enrichment so kids could stay with their peers. Our repeated requests never got us much more than Sudoku puzzles. There is so much math in the world outside what is included in the standard curriculum, but the teachers don't seem to have access to appropriate materials. We chose acceleration, but it really does trap you. [/quote] Don't knock Sudoku puzzles! Our DC was hooked when he was introduced to them by his teacher and I think it was the beginning of his love affair with math![/quote] Sudoku puzzles are great. We did KenKen puzzles too. However, they are not an adequate substitute for an appropriate math curriculum. Kids are not one size fits all, schools shouldn't pretend they are.[/quote]
