[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you.  Not the OP or PP but I get so tired of people coming on here saying things like "Larlo is in 7th grade and taking Trigonometry" and if your child is in Algebra in 9th grade, they are on the slow track, which is not true.[/quote]

Taking Algebra I in 9th grade is perfectly normal.[/quote]
Depends on where you live.[/quote]

No, it really doesn't.

It's normal to learn to read at 4. or 5. or 6. or 7. or 8. Brains need to be able to do certain things in order to read. They also need to be able to do certain things in order to do certain types of math. Some kids are ready younger than others and some older than others. 9th graders are still within the realm of "normal" for Algebra I. Geographical area has nothing to do brain development.

My DH and I work in STEM. One of our kids is a 9th grader taking Algebra I, because that's where he is with math. He loves electronics, and I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up as an electrical engineer (or, if he has his way, designing guitar pedals). He'll be just fine. So will the other 9th graders in his math class.[/quote]
