[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid is in the 3rd grade and score in the 250s in the winter score, how possible is it to request them to go to compacted math 5/6?[/quote]

I doubt the school would consider having a student skip the entire 4th grade math curriculum as well as half the 5th grade curriculum. At our school, 4th and 5th graders don’t have math at the same time, so it wouldn’t be possible.[/quote]

Compacted math is in 4th grade so if your 3rd grade MAP score is that high, more than likely they will be in compacted math automatically and if not, you can always request it and see what they say.[/quote]

They will not jump your kid over 4/5 compacted math as its not just facts but the strategies and other stuff and 5/6 math is for 5th graders.  No need to rush it.  [/quote]

There is one school that did this for an entire class in mcps, and the kids seem to be doing fine.  That said, I wouldn't necessary do it for my kid either but just curious at[b] what map-m[/b] score does a child need to hit before there is consideration to skip an entire year.[/quote]
I only have anecdotal evidence but there's a child in my DC's 4th grade with an exorbitant MAP-M, something like 280, or so, and he is taking compacted math 4/5 with the great unwashed. :evil: Didn't even make it to a CES.[/quote]
