[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm going to be moving my child to the GT Center from a LLIV in 4th grade. Honestly, I'm not going to worry about it that much. I know a few people at our Center and their math does not seem advanced vs ours. But I am planning to go to the GT Orientation for our center and that seems like a good question to ask.[/quote]

I am moving my child in 4th grade too.  I plan to do 4th grade math with him over the summer so he doesn't enter feeling like he's behind in math, which is his relative strength. He's received lots of horizontal enrichment in math, but his current private school does not offer compacted or accelerated math in elementary school.  I don't think it should take him that long to master it (he's been coasting in math his whole life), but it should help him with his confidence since I expect the Center will be the first time he's with some kids who are better at math than he is.  I'm not sure what to do about L.A., which is not his relative strength, although he's still above grade level.  I'll ask at the GT center orientation.[/quote]
