[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s been surprisingly successful at my child’s school. They have two full classes of 6th grade algebra students (and 2 of 6th grade advanced math). What I will say is from helping neighbor kids who stayed at the base school, the online version is very, very remedial compared to what is taught in a typical algebra 1 class. If online is the only option, I might hold back.[/quote] My daughter has half her 6th grade class doing algebra 1. Kids were crying over it, at least 3-4 kids have tutors, several kids go to outside math programs, and one kid is consistently cheating. And the majority of them are miserable. If all these kids were ready for it, none of this would be necessary. For title 1 kids, given them access without the supports or underlying math foundations is a recipe for disaster. Not everyone will be able to afford the supplements needed to make it through.[/quote]
