[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. This is really strange that if an AAP kid from 6th grade couldn’t qualify for Algebra 1 they have to take Maths 7 honors. And DC says maths 7 honors is nothing but 6th grade AAP. He is redoing it. He feels that he flunked that’s why redoing. Why an AAP kid has to take IAAT test and advance SOL so as to take Algebra 1. What’s the benefit of being in AAp and doing pre algebra in 6th grade. They were basically coached and taught to be ready for Algebra 1. Why these barriers to cross by these poor kids. So basically AAP is till 6th grade. [/quote]

Math 7 Honors is not the same as AAP 6th grade math.

Numerous AAP students qualify for Algebra I 7th grade but choose to take Math 7 Honors instead. That's fine!

Do you really think AAP is only about math? [/quote]

Math 7 honors is very similar to AAP 6th grade.  My spouse teaches math 7 honors. Our two oldest kids are in AAP. Our oldest is math-y and when kid qualified for algebra in 7th and wanted to take it - spouse thought that was good / fine and that kid would be bored in honors math 7. Our middle one prefers to be the big fish in a small and doesn’t love math as much - & I’m sure this kid won’t want to take algebra in 7th and we are also ok with that. No need to force it if the kid isn’t interested. [/quote]
