Mcps is rolling out a compacted math curriculum starting next year. It provides fourth and fifth graders with fourth, fifth, and sixth grade math over two years...ultimately creating a pathway for them to take geometry in 8th grade. No one seems to be able to give a straight answer about how current third graders will be assessed to get into this compacted math curriculum. Has anyone heard from their teachers or principals how placements will be made? |
