I'm embarrassed to admit how nauseous I am trying to compile a portfolio. I have no idea what is typical or considered advance enough to warrant inclusion in an application for a 6 year-old with kindergarten completed.
I welcome feedback on which of the following you would send in a portfolio:
-Video of the child playing chess
-Video of the child reading C.S. Lewis (unabridged)and making comments showing an understanding of what was read
-- Video of the child reading Mark Twain (unabridged)with comments showing an understanding of what was readd
- Video of the child converting mixed numbers to improper fractions and vis versa in their head
- Video of the child multiplying fractions and reducing them
- Video of the child adding and subtracting fractions after converting to a common denominator
- Video of the child doing long division and multi-digit multiplication
- Video of the child reading clearly adult-level books on animals
- Video of the child finding area and perimeter of rectangles
- Worksheets showing the child doing long division, multi-digit multiplication, multiplication of fractions, conversion of improper fractions to mixed numbers and vis versa, area and perimeter calculations of rectangles, addition and subtraction of fractions requiring conversion to a common denominator
Thank you! I welcome thoughts and suggestions!
