[quote=Anonymous]I think some of it is that math is more linear. Let's say that your school's 9th grade curriculum is early World History. It's not like a kid can be "finished" with that. There are adults with PhD's who are still finding things about World History to study and explore. Similarly, if your freshman English class is studying personal narratives, there is always more work to be done, always room for improvement. So, theoretically, even the very brightest kids can find ways to engage and grow in these topics. Acceleration makes less sense than enrichment. But in math, there is a point at which there is no longer work on solving systems of linear equations that is meaningful. So, it makes sense to move on to the next thing. [/quote]
