[quote=Anonymous]I would let her do IM. She can always step off the math track later and doesn't need to take AP Calc ever if that's not what she wants to do years from now, but I don't see a compelling reason a) to make her repeat 6th grade math unless she's really struggling or b) limit her options in case she decides later that she does really love math and wants to take on my challenging classes. If she really doesn't love math, she will not be forced to take AP calculus of any kind in high school -- there are non-AP calculus options, and courses like quantitative literacy. FWIW, we moved from out of state and my then-6th grader moved up from 6th grade math to IM because 6th grade math was boring and slow. I can't imagine a kid who went through compacted math not being really bored in math 6.[/quote]
