    I'm wondering if anyone can recommend some good software or online programs that would work for in-class enrichment for my first grader. According to his MAP tests, he's working at about a 4th grade level in math and 5th grade in reading. His teacher is willing to let him use the classroom computers to do this. I'm open to all subject areas. Many thanks in advance!

    I asked something similar a while ago, specifically regarding science:

    FWIW we ended up going with BrainPop and Khan Academy, but really DD only gets to use them very sporadically in class so perhaps have a conversation with the teacher about how it will all work
