[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This year, there is not a magnet Geometry class for 9th. A couple of kids did it over the summer. Everyone is in Precalculus or Functions.[/quote] How are SMACS magnet Precalculus and Functions different from how school Algebra 2 + Precalculus, besides being accelerated? Or is speed the only difference? Please be specific if you can. I've heardvit's "deeper" and "more work" but not specifically what that means. I'd love to hear from someone who has had kids in both Magnet SMACS and neighborhood high school math class [/quote] The neighborhood high school math class doesn’t combine algebra II and precalculus into a single class. Functions does that in 2 semesters. Magnet precalculus does it in 3. They also go into the subject deeper as you’ve said.[/quote]
