[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 4th grader doing well in compacted math, spring MAP score 237 and I’d actually be fine if he didn’t move on to 5/6 next year. They missed 40% of the curriculum and those gaps will definitely start to show as they do more advanced math.[/quote]

If they're at 237 they're doing fine. The 5/6 curriculum is kind of a joke anyway. You only needed 240 in years past to qualify for IM Math in 6th.[/quote]

The 5/6 curriculum has been pretty bad and random under Eureka.  I'm not sure who decided which lessons to skip, but some of them contain core content that is subsequently tested. 
Some of the grading standards are based on "Eureka things" that these poor kids have not had ingrained in them since K, but rather thrust upon them in a pandemic. I guess this year has been all about smart kids figure things out that they've never been taught.[/quote]

My kid is in it now. They're wapping up 6th-grade module 4 which is basic algebraic equations. This seems fine to me. [/quote]

They've been jumping all over the place[/quote]

Then you’re issue appears to be with Eureka Math. The 5/6 curriculum has done 4 continuous modules in the curriculum without skipping around. It is true that each module has a different topic, but compacted 5/6 is not skipping around.
I should add the kid scores in the 280s on the MAP-M and thinks compacted is a joke.[/quote][/quote]
