So did I. I was reading 12th grade or even college-level by the time I hit eighth grade, and I was in calculus by 10th grade. I still don't think it's a good idea to deliberately hold her back.

If she gets too far ahead, maybe see if you can talk with her teachers and get her advanced school work, or maybe put in a higher math class. If not-- from everything I've read, you certainly seem very invested in their education; maybe give her other (math related, of course) things she can bring with her to do in class.

I really, really (really!) think it's more important to encourage her at this stage than it is to try and keep her from being bored in class. Even if it does mean she acts out a little. How often do you run across a kid who *wants* to learn math, after all??
