Yes, thanks to all. This is a helpful topic to me. DD is very mathy, so she watches the CTY teaching videos then does the problem sets all on her own. Since she has to take the SSAT for UTS admission, I got Spectrum workbooks to push her ELA. This is where she slacks.
Though all of sudden she will describe the "integrity of wet sand" using language like her father. Something I never did at 9. So I have to get her to practice using it. And essay writing. Problem with technology. Spellcheck, or powerpoint slide projects don't help with writing skills.
