[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes 3rd and 4th is supposed to be compacted so that a student has learned *most* of 5th grade math by the end of fourth and is just about ready for 6th grade Math in 5th. Not all FCPS schools use compacted math schedules. Also there is a new E3 Math that has even less acceleration but is meant for all students. So it really depends on the school.[/quote] +1 There seems to be 2 Advanced Math tracks, one with 3rd grade teaching 3rd and 4th grade math (which are similar concepts with more digits) and 4th and 5th grade math in 4th grade (same) so that in 5th grade, the 6th grade SOL is not a stretch. And the other track has regular 3rd and 4th grade math and then 5th grade is 5th and 6th grade math in one year. Math in elementary school spirals so each year covers similar concepts with more digits or slightly more complicated problems. So math acceleration is very doable, when it's appropriate.[/quote]
