[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MoCo parents do a lot of outside of school math supplementation with tutors and classes. At what age do you recommend starting this? (Since you agree that it's impossible to do differentiation in math classes with a wide range of student abilities.)[/quote] I would say 3rd grade. Because the MAPM scores and math grades in school and MCAP scores will determine if they are in the compacted math class in 4th grade. Have tutors focus a lot on written responses to explain their math thinking. So many students can do algorithms all day long....but they can't explain how they used math reasoning to solve a word problem.[/quote]
