[quote=Anonymous]15:56 I have been saying this about my daughters' math classes at her school for years! In 7th grade she was in the advanced math class but still only getting proficient (although close to Adv)on the math portion of DCCAS. Obviously, she is/was missing some fundamentals. I told the teacher that maybe she should consider having a few lessons each week on the basics (adding/subtr fractions, decimals, percentages, word problems, etc). She did follow my advice and said she saw improvement with just those exercises that she did in class. Not sure how it translated to the DC CAS though. Maybe I'll suggest that to the principal for next year. I don't see the sense in knowing "advanced math concepts" if the students can't do the fundamentals.[/quote]
