[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can select but I strongly recommend talking to your child’s 5th grade math teacher and the math coach at their middle school to help make that decision. Plus perhaps their case carrier at the elementary school? Understand the reasons for their recommended placement and don’t push your child just because. Pre Algebra covers three years of middle school math in one year. It’s not easy and moves fast. We self selected after the initial recommendation of Math 6, and DC squeaked out an A but worked very very hard for it. Math 6 would have been too slow, but pre algebra was definitely a stretch. [b]Pre-COVID there was a Math 6 Intensified[/b] but they’ve done away with that which I think is unfortunate. [/quote] In APS? Which school offered that? [/quote] I think that was the first year of covid, kids who would have taken pre-algebra took math 6 extended since they didn't finish 5th grade. [/quote]
