[quote=Anonymous]I really hate the idea that if a kid isn’t in honors math in middle school, they aren’t meant to pursue it in the future. As a kid who ran out of math in high school and went to mit, now that I am an adult, I think the us streams kids too early. There are many studies showing that kids of all abilities learn more effectively in mixed ability classes. Placing kids in lower math classes goes against what we have learned about growth mindset. I think there are plenty of kids who are dropped or not chosen for honors middle school math are unfairly discouraged and steered away from pursuing it later. Just my two cents. [/quote]
