[quote=Anonymous] I would love it if this year's 4th graders could skip out on deceleration next year. Does anybody really know what's going to happen next year? Nothing official was said at back to school night, but I heard informally from an administrator that no plans have come from the District about dealing with 5th graders (that is, how to decelerate them), and that the cluster middle school is scrambling to figure out what to do. Not very reassuring. How do we record concerns against changes that are still unknown? Estimation and distributive properties were covered under the old curriculum, including formal instruction that estimation is a technique (and a very useful one) for solving real world problems. Reviews I've heard from parents of a 1st grader are that their child is completely unchallenged in math, although they're happy with reading/writing. Their solution is to add a little teaching on the side at home.[/quote]
