[quote=Anonymous]OP back A few posts from other sites that got me thinking: [i] I just don't think kids have the maturity, brain development for Algebra 1 as a 7th grader - some introduction to algebraic concepts, yes, but not the first year of Algebra. Additionally, I don't think a high school junior can master calculus.(from a math major and masters in statistics) An article from great schools .org "Is your child being tracked in math?" from 2014, noted "To take algebra or not to take algebra, that is the 8th grade question." In five years, that question has been pushed down to 7th grade. Our pediatrician treats a lot of stressed out kids with issues due to school work.[/i] My DC is two years ahead of me in their math classes. Maybe they can handle it. Looks like we will ride it out till the end of the year. [/quote]
