[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got a letter saying my son was accepted into this class. The description seems similar to Investigations into Mathematics. He’s my only so I don’t know anyone with older children in the area to ask questions. Is this Applied class a lot harder? Do students who take that course take a different kind of math in 7th and 8th than Investigations into math (not applies)?

And I know this is far down our road, but how will taking this class in 6th affect his high school math choices? He does well in compacted math, but isn’t the top math student in his class and it’s a struggle for him sometimes. Looking for thought and advice from anyone who has children who have been through these classes. Thank you.

At least at my son's school, it doesn't seem too hard for the kids who are supposed to be in it.  [/quote]

This.  My compacted math kid has been in it since 6th and never complained.  He's actually occasionally gotten less than an A on an assignment which I take to mean he's being challenged enough.  As for down the road, if he continues, he will be in Honors Alg 2 in 9th grade and then Pre-Cal/AP Cal/AP stats or AP B-C Cal (if I remember correctly from various meetings attended).[/quote]
