[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Generally speaking, problems in math at one level are because the student didn't learn it well enough at previous levels. She quite likely needs algebra or even pre-algebra skills she didn't fully develop.[/quote] She did have a sub for math the last two quarters of the year for algebra 1 because her teacher got fired.[/quote] I'd expect that her foundation from Algebra I isn't strong.[/quote] This is what we found out in our family. We also pushed our daughter into an accelerated math track, only to find out her alg 1 skills weren’t strong enough (even though she had straight As). The department chair of her high school told us she really hopes the push for early math stops soon because many (most?) students aren’t ready for algebra around 6th-7th grade.[/quote]
