MHB, thanks for the update and glad to hear he's feeling positive about math again!

Dottie, thanks for sharing the info from the Rusczyk talk. It reminded me of something Grinity said on another thread about teachers thinking above level work is somehow "dangerous" to kids. It frustrates me to no end to see schools avoid giving challenging work because it's seen as damaging but turn around and allow in-school advertising exploit young children who can't fully understand persuasive intent. cry
