[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Somewhere I saw EOY but it would make mor sense to be holistic. Keep in mind with the SOL - kids in APS will take the math 5 SOL and then in 6th grade pre-algebra take the math 8 SOL. It isn’t like that in AAP FCPS. Somehow someone needs to ensure that kids really do cover the topics of math 6 and 7. I think the approach in APS is really odd - why not accelerate earlier?[/quote] APS waits until 6th grade to accelerate for equity reasons, so that kids who take more time to develop their skills are not precluded from acceleration. But, as you note, it leads to a much sharper ramp-up in content than in FCPS, which makes acceleration more challenging for APS kids. [/quote]
