[quote=Anonymous]Bottom line: make sure your kid knows math facts - and not just the basics for DCPS 4th graders and not the common core mumbo jumbo. Get a copy of Saxon 7/8 and work on the skills taught and tested there - or 6/7 if you have to, but recognize that 6/7 actually puts your child behind in math. You want them to rock the placement test and then not have math (30 problems a night) be the bane of their existence all year. We let our kid be put in an advanced class when the school opened (ultimately the right decision) but because we did not prepare over the summer the first year was a real struggle...........[/quote]
