[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is Common Core. It has shoved down math by one or two grades. [/quote] The MCPS Common Core-aligned curriculum has Algebra I in eighth grade for on-grade-level math. So on-grade-level math used to be Algebra I in sixth grade?[/quote] Shoving math "down" generally means taking something from an upper grade and moving it to a lower grade. Algebra 1 has long been an ninth grade course, although many kids have taken it early. CC moves it to eighth, so "down" a grade level. [/quote]
