[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]can someone explain how do your kids get to learn trigonometry in fifth grade? why are they doing it?[/quote] Parents who sign their children up for things like aops or RSM. There's a reason a bus takes kids to after school prep from the same ES that offers AIM to 5th graders. Their kids from that same school who are taking honor's geometry in 6th. Some families really value education and push their kids. I'm fine with it personally. In fact, why not let kids go at their own pace?[/quote] which elementary is this? Btw we value education, and we value math, but trigonometry in middle school doesn't make sense for 99.9999% children. I've known several medalists from math olympiads and none of them did trig in elementary school. There are many, many difficult math problems to master before you move on to the next concept.[/quote]
