This was my issue with EM - it was just really slow for our HG+ kid. It may have been different if we could have been able to skip up.

I do feel like we've been able to move a little "slower" with Singapore at home. I'm kind of hoping not to reach algebra until 4th grade if we can keep working steadily on Singapore and supplementing with math facts and more conceptual work (and doing things like programming and logic).
