[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Check the grade level math curriculum on IXL. The teacher is probably not covering all of the material and giving students decent grades anyway. The American math curriculum is typically one year behind the British math curriculum, and two years behind the East Asian math curriculums. We are doing badly even with such low expectations.[/quote] Exactly! It took me a while to catch on to this about the curriculum. I figured it out when I just got blank stares when I asked: “Ok, so what is the pre-algebra curriculum my kid needs to get through to be prepared for algebra?” and algebra is no better- it is “self paced” which apparently means “we will see whatever the kids manage to do on their own then scramble frantically to doctor the grades so they don’t all get Fs.” [/quote]
