I'm curious as to your heuristics. Please point me towards your models.

And we use the Trivium as the curriculum to guide them and we used this resource primarily to develop their curriculum:

I will say this - I am excellent at math; even higher math such as Calculus. My wife is excellent with Grammar. So we are able to help them when they do run into some difficulty - but for the most part they can consume a subject on their own at this point.
In terms of reading early on we checked out the hooked on phonics at the library. With Math I made them memorize their math tables and how to do math in their head with one of those "Mental math" books - also from the library. I also taught them some common ways to memorize things and had them from early age to memorize songs, scriptures, and poems.
Learn these things early and there is no stopping a kid...
