[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, there is a downside. When you are in an area where many parents supplement math, then teachers expect the students to have already been taught the material and don't teach. [/quote] I mean a drawback on the individual level. [/quote] Having teachers who don't teach is a downside on an individual level.[/quote] lol. Your posts are not only snide but make 0 sense.[/quote] Micro actions have macro effects. Don't be surprised by "unexpected consequences".[/quote] What about the "micro action" of schools that teach to the test and don't track students in math, having the macro effect of killing kids' interest in math and failing all kids by not offering appropriate content for their skill level? Maybe focus on that instead of getting mad at parents who want to encourage their child's demonstrated interest in math when it is not being met at school.[/quote]
