(She is now at a gifted magnet.) We are finishing up week 3 of school, so it's still early, but not THAT early.

Math is also looking way too easy.

I'm hoping this is still because they are working out placement.

Has she read the non fiction companion books? My DS loved those because they were less story more fact. Maybe rading those would keep her more interested in the MTH books in class?
