[quote=Anonymous]DD is in Algebra 1H this year. He is quite strong in math and picks up concepts quickly. He completed one year of Russian Math in 5th grade but had no other supplemental instruction (we stopped this year due to scheduling issues), so he did not come in with all pre-algebra concepts mastered. He was on the school math team, though, and has some light experience with competitions. He is doing well in Algebra 1—it’s his favorite class, and he’s excited to finally be learning something challenging. While he isn’t a math prodigy, he is almost always able to explain why concepts work. He is encountering many Algebra concepts for the first time in this class and is handling them just fine. He has a solid A, and I also think the teacher is very good. I’d say do it if your child is already accelerated—meaning they already know Algebra- or if they grasp mathematical concepts easily without extra support. If your child doesn' like math, I would not recommend it.[/quote]
