[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's not what I understood. I know that the IM concept is state-mandated, but I actually thought the state recommended doing it as a 3-year sequence. [/quote] Correct. MSDE said to do it in 3 years, but MCPS wants all kids to do it in 2. I have a 5th grader in compacted math going to Loeiderman next year and emailed their Math RT. All compacted math kids go to pre algebra in grade 6. Grades 7 and 8 will be IM 1 and IM 2 which are the equivalent of Alg 1 and 2 plus Geometry. 9th grade is pre calculus and 10th grade is AP calc. No idea what happens in grades 11 and 12.[/quote] This is incorrect. MSDE is requiring a two-year sequence. They want pathways that do not involve calculus and don’t think all the standards are necessary for these students. The calculus track will need an extra course. [/quote]
