[quote=Anonymous]Intensified classes are generally more work and have more writing than the regular classes. My older kids didn’t have intensified for most of middle school— they weren’t offered until 8th grade for my older one, and it used to be you couldn’t take intensified classes as a sixth grader. For both my kids, they came home with more work once they started taking intensified classes. They also had a lot more writing, every class has at least one essay a quarter, as opposed to regular classes where only English or maybe social science have essays. The essays for science were a good thing in my opinion. The more writing the better. [/quote]
