[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have your child do Khan Academy for a math class the summer before they takes it. Math teachers run the gamut and if your kid gets lost during the class, that could have a long term impact on them psychologically and academically and it really won't be their fault.[/quote] +1 It's hard to get the kid to do it... but the two years my kid did a lot of Khan Academy in the summer were their best math years in terms of grades and stress. You can identify the specific subject kid will be in next year (e.g., HS geometry or Algebra II) and the kid can work through it week-by-week. There's tons of stuff for the littles, too. I think it's harder to match exactly what the kid's curriculum will be next year, but any math preparation will make them stronger, even if there's not a one-to-one alignment with the grade year curriculum.[/quote]
