Her teacher is wonderful. She works with her students at their levels. About half of the first graders in her class have been working on at least 2nd grade level on language arts and math. Our school requires weekly parent participation, so I'm in there at least 2 hours a week, sometimes more.
Among her siblings, DS6 is the most persistent one. She doesn't give up easily. She may be crying out of frustration, but she wouldn't quit and would eventually get it done, whether it's Singapore Math, abacus, or violin playing.
It all sounds very good! Just keep an eye on her willingness to branch out into new areas of challenge. As long as that stays 'reasonable' then it seems all is well. It sounds like she has a great teacher and a strong group of classmates!
Great to hear it -
