[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Funny how school becomes ‘not challenging enough’ right after parents outsource half the math curriculum to RSM or Mathnasium.

Maybe your child isn’t ‘unchallenged.’ Maybe you paid to spoil the plot and now you’re complaining the movie is predictable.[/quote]

We waited until third grade. He was ahead before we started RSM. Believe it or not, ES math is not hard for kids who grasp math concepts quickly. There are plenty of kids behind and at grade level but there are kids who find it easy.[/quote]

I have a kid who qualified for MOP (Math Olympiad), I understand. He never complained about "not challenging enough".

People here start foaming at the mouth about kid not being challenged. [b]If the kid is good in math, they would find a way to make it challenging even at school,[/b] all by themselves. [/quote]. That depends greatly on the teacher.  My kids have had some teachers who allowed them to bring in AoPS stuff or other challenging, worthwhile materials.  They've also had some teachers who forced them to use STMath or do other busywork when they finished the assigned work.  My kids have had no problems with boredom when the teachers were willing to give them some agency.[/quote]
