[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The test is this weekend for MS and HS magnet.  [b]Just ask your kids how much of the material in the Math test was actually covered in class due to 2.0.[/b]  Go on, just ask.  
I am hoping that many parents will actually ask to see the test if their kids do not get it.[/quote]

How in the name of little sour apples are kids supposed to be able to answer this question? And how is it relevant? How much of the material in the math test was covered in class before 2.0, when the fifth-graders taking the test could have been in Math 5, Math 6, Math 7, or IM?[/quote]is i

Ahh, but this is the first batch that had 2.0 shoved down their throat.  There is no accelerated kid here.  This is going to be very interesting.[/quote]

Interesting how, exactly? It's not as though the middle-school admissions committees were deciding between a batch of children who took math before 2.0 and another batch of children who took 2.0 math. All of the children (except the private-school ones) took 2.0 math. Therefore the great majority of the children who will be admitted will have taken 2.0 math.

Also, it's not true that there's no acceleration under 2.0. There is acceleration: compacted math.[/quote]
