[quote=Anonymous]If your child really loves math and gets bored/finds even accelerated math easy, then taking Algebra 1 in 6th is the way to go. My son found the accelerated math in 5th still too easy. He was placed in Algebra in 6th and excelled this year (this is Moco). Said if he had been in IM he would have been bored. So if your child loves math and prefers being challenged go for Algebra (if it's offered at your school- in most Moco schools, algebra isn't offered in 6th). If a child really enjoys math, I wouldn't worry to much about the pathway. If they don't like math, even if they are good at it, maybe don't take algebra in 6th due to concerns listed by other posters.[/quote]
