[quote=Anonymous]Am I the only parent wishing there was a Math 6 Intensified option. My rising 6th grader is on the cusp of the Pre-Algebra cut-off, but I worry that Math 6 will be more of the same that we had in 5th grade where the focus was almost totally on the bottom half of the class. Pre-Algebra might be too hard, but Math 6 has the potential to be another wasted year with minimal attention paid to the kids above grade level. We need to decide whether to go with Pre-Algebra and get a tutor if necessary to support, or go with Math 6 and get a tutor to do the teaching that likely won't happen in the classroom. DC is unlikely to need upper level math classes in late high school so pre-algebra isn't an academic necessity, but I also don't want another year on the iPad doing math games while the teacher plays catch-up with the kids below grade level.[/quote]
