[quote=Anonymous]Here is what my daughter, who took algebra last year, tweeted about an hour ago: "I'm still waiting for the day I'll actually use x² + y +8 [(x + 2y ² = a-z] + 2x ³ + (- 2z = 2. 4) + 10y - 5Z ³= k= 9 in real life." She also struggled with algebra, particularly second semester. We went back to a tutor we had used on and off for math since 5th grade. Working one-on-one with someone is really helpful, if expensive. Like you, it's so frustrating to see your DD work so hard and still not be successful. I was also afraid mine wouldn't pass the Maryland high school assessment, but she did fine. She told me that test was much easier than her regular classes. Also, depending where you are, the quarter only recently started (unless you're referring to last quarter's grade), so there's a lot of time to pull it up. I really wish Maryland, at least, didn't require 4 years of high school math. Good luck to both of you.[/quote]
