We have loved the program. I don't have a "math gifted" kid and I can't say my kids love math, but the approach that AoPS uses is so different from any other program! It's all about why. There are so many ways to play with math if you understand the why, and that is what sets this program apart. I have no idea how this will translate to standardized tests because it's definitely not common core, but I don't worry too much about that because I feel their understanding of math is so much better because of the AoPS programs.kasienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08316171587358656883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9083149706766481366.post-35710156023052934962019-03-05T19:05:36.024-08:002019-03-05T19:05:36.024-08:00I just wanted to note that the Well Trained Mind O...I just wanted to note that the Well Trained Mind Online School has started teaching year-long math classes using this curriculum. So instead of doing the course in five months or so, your child can take much longer. The textbook really is excellent, so if you have the opportunity to slow it down for a less-mathy kid it would still be worthwhile.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592779543083918039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9083149706766481366.post-66558974253267373792018-09-06T17:32:06.709-07:002018-09-06T17:32:06.709-07:00The online course does not have any audio or video...The online course does not have any audio or video. I am not sure if a text only session can keep all the students equally engaged. I hope the teaching assistants engage students who are not responding to questions asked in the chat session.MathMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07428135881124718274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9083149706766481366.post-24610492865419220192018-01-08T08:22:40.713-08:002018-01-08T08:22:40.713-08:00Thanks so much for the thoughtful and thorough rev...Thanks so much for the thoughtful and thorough review.

We have the book and have begun working through it at home using the book, the resource videos, and Alcumus, but it sounds like my son would still really benefit from the challenge and mentoring the class offers. Also, I'm guessing they would be able to expect and evaluate the written problems from him more easily than I would -- something that I think would be great practice for him.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11575781706637701397noreply@blogger.com
