[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Math is the most important to take for honors in 7th grade. The schools may tell you otherwise, but it really does determine whether DC can take Algebra I in 8th. For the other classes, honors can just mean more projects and more work. It doesn't have to be 'all or nothing'. My DC took 2 honors in 7th (math & SS) and 3 in 8th (math, SS, and science). He would have enjoyed honors science more in 7th, but it hasn't stopped him from getting an A in honors 8 science. [/quote] Why the push to take algebra in 8th over 9th? My son signed up to take honors math 8, but his teacher emailed yesterday and said he would be better off in math 8, building a better foundation, and taking algebra 1 the following year.[/quote]
