[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Race to nowhere. [/quote] The counterpoint is that especially in lower grades math moves very slowly and a large fraction of the kids could would benefit from a faster pace.[/quote] Sure, some advanced topics/acceleration make sense. But we reach diminishing returns at some point. Only exception being the rare math genius who jumps ahead grades. [/quote] Also as younger and younger kids take these classes the curriculum is altered. Look at algebra text from a couple generations ago they are very difficult. [/quote] I haven't seen this difference. Main difference is the calculator stuff and stats content wasn't mixed in. [/quote]
