[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s impossible to know if an elementary schooler without “maturity” may become more mature in middle school or not, so everyone (teachers, school) will be making the decision based on what is best for your child right now for next year. I personally would err on the side of trying the more challenging course and dropping down if it’s too much for a kid on the bubble. [/quote] Right, but the question is, if they do find it too stressful and want to drop back down, are they dooming their middle school math trajectory.[/quote] DP. Regardless of its impact on MS math trajectory, they need to understand the concepts before they move on to the next level. If they think CM is hard/too fast, they may need to be in a level more appropriate for them or some serious tutoring so they get up to speed.[/quote]
