[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So dumb. It is not that Algebra 1 in 6th grade will be hard. It is that Calculus in 10th grade will be hard. Or Algebra 2 in 8th. Or Precalc in 9th. [/quote] Funny enumeration of math courses you have there. DC who just finished calc in 10th, btw, and his peers all agree that actually Geometry in 7th was the hardest. I say that's because it was taught by a competent teacher and the other courses could have used a bit more rigor. It is problematic that for many US students preuniversity training ends with calculus when other countries customarily include linear algebra, 3D vector geometry, stochastics (not "AP Stats"), and for instance proof techniques such as induction in their required curriculum.[/quote] I'd like to compare the FCPS curriculum with some well regarded international curriculums. Can you give me the name of one or more countries which do this? [/quote]
