[quote=Anonymous]My kid just did 8th grade at Deal and took Algebra II and Geometry. I was not in favor because as others have pointed out I think it’s better to focus more on foundation than going faster and taking two classes at the same time, but kid insisted (usual reason, my friends are doing it i want to be with them). It was a good smount if work, also because it seems teachers do not coordinate so sue often had s lot or homework for English, science snd other subjects as well. Geometry teacher was great, she had her for math before. Algebra II teacher was also very good
But very demandin, I understand he had a contract to teach only that class. Kid did very well, but she is extremely focused and organized and most of her closest friends were also in the same class or taking geometry so rhat made things easier. To me taking the two classes the same year is not bad. What is really bad is summer smac. My did it two years sgo snd was atrocious. Ruined our summer and it took kid the first fee months of the next year to make up for the holes. Learning a year of math in four weeks is completely idiotic, never ever again[/quote]
