[quote=Anonymous]I'm intentionally bumping this Zombie Post to see if folks have any updates to the excellent science teacher post above, particularly for a strong humanities student. I'm particularly interested in folks with expertise in the science pathways now that Honors for All is the norm. My strong humanities (MBHS CAP) kid did the standard Honors Biology class this year, and is really frustrated with the pace and lack of interest of her peers. She's now balking at continuing the Honors Chemistry next year, as she claims it will be more of the same, with kids on their phone all day and wants to switch to AP Physics instead. I'm not opposed to AP Physics except that it locks her into AP science for the rest of the run, as my understanding is that it is generally frowned upon to take an AP and then "drop down" to Honors. Anyone have any advice or thoughts? Any reason to expect Honors Chemistry to have more rigor than the Biology course? [/quote]
