Do you mean double the number in your school, or double the number county-wide?

How will we know our kid GBRS score ? DO we need to call teacher to find the score?

V-117
Q-132
N-122

C-128(96%)

any chance?

Yes, but this time there are almost double number of kids, so I guess GBRS will become very important

!5:22 is your DC in the pool or not? I would assume yes, but would still like to know for sure.

DD CogAT scores

verbal- 121
quantatative- 133
non-verbal- 131

composite- 133, 98%

NNAT- 119, 88%

keeping my fingers crossed.

Wow! My 3rd grader's class in FCPS hasn't even mastered this! Goes to show not all schools are created equal -- even if they are supposed to follow the same curriculum. This just adds to the argument for a need for full time AAP in my opinion...

how many moms posted in this thread have 'mastered' multiplication with fractions and decimals?

Not exaggerating or joking. It's a Young Scholars class.

So your post in regards to the catholic school teaching was deliberately misleading?
That would be like saying that FCPS 6th graders take Algebra (without specifying that it is just a small group of kids at our AAP center school, and it's not even offered at every AAP center)

According to:

http://commweb.fcps.edu/directory/byprogram.cfm

there are 78 Young Scholars schools out of 141. I am guessing that ours is not the only one, but I have not surveyed all 2nd grade Young Scholars classes.

Isn't young scholars a pull out program, not a typical 2nd grade class?

Our school doesn't offer young scholars.

Can I ask which school? It really sounds advanced in FCPS!

There is no FCPS 2nd grade class that is doing multiplication with fractions and decimals.

My son is in the most advanced of 4 math classes and they just finished single digit multiplication and division.
