[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]May I know if there is any criteria or any other test that needs to be taken to get into Algebra 1.All I hear is only kids whom are un advance math can go for it . May I know the exact process for it ?.[/quote]

The process is that kids in LIV and Advanced [b]Math skip 5th grade math and take 6th grade math in 5th grade and 7th grade math in 6th grade. [/b]They take the SOLs associated with 6th grade and 7th grade. Those kids also take the IAAT in 6th grade. Kids who score in th 91rst percentile on the IAAT and pass advanced on the 7th grade SOL are offered the opportunity to take Algebra Honors in 7th grade.

That is the normal process. Essentially, 6th grade is spent doing pre-algebra. The two tests demonstrate a mastery of pre-algebra skills needed to succeed in Algebra Honors in 7th grade.

Kids who do not meet the test scores and kids in gen ed math have the option of takeing Math 7 Honors or Math 7. The Math 7 Honors kids will take Algebra Honors in 8th grade.[/quote]

They take 3+4 math in 3 rd, then 5 in 4th, 6 in 5th and 7 in 6th. Then they need 91st percentile in Iowa and pass advanced on the SOL. [/quote]
