[quote=Anonymous]I had understood that compacted math (or math 4/5) begins in 4th grade. Is that still true? My DD (in 2nd grade) claims that she's heard that some kids will go into advanced math in 3rd grade (next year). I feel like I'm always running behind on this topic. Older child was not placed in compacted math in 4th grade; however was placed in CM in 5th grade (math 5/6) only after I questioned it. No one reached out to me beforehand, no permission slip, no testing. But when I asked what the criteria were, and how my child compared to those in the program, I was immediately told my child could choose compacted math even though school year had already begun. So apparently, if I hadn't said anything, DC would not have been offered CM even though DC met the criteria. My DD is actually more advanced in math than my older child, so I consider it to be a no brainer that younger child should be in CM. (younger child has taught herself multiplication and division) [/quote]
