[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why have both prealgebra and Foundations of Algebra? If a kid can go to Algebra 1 in 7th from either class, it seems like both are providing prealgebra skills. Does prealgebra cover additional material or is it the same material as Foundations but it goes deeper into the topics?[/quote] Good question. Perhaps they are similar classes with prealgebra being an honors prealgebra, as it is a new course. It used to be about half the kids would be in algebra by 7th grade, and it is still somewhat close to that now.[/quote]
