[quote=Anonymous]Previous poster again: My kid is reasonably good at math but not a prodigy and what has inadvertently worked well for him is taking Algebra 2 followed by Algebra 2 honors. He took Algebra 2 in public (8th grade), and then transferred to private and was placed in Algebra 2 honors for 9th. Algebra 2: learned the concepts; test problems were very similar to homework problems. Algebra 2 honors: class is going much deeper in concepts, test problems are nothing like the homework problems--he has to think "live" on every exam. I realize that this isn't a sequence anyone can plan on but to me it has demonstrated how different honors level math classes are from regular (in our experience). It will change what math classes I put my younger kids in. [/quote]
