[quote=Anonymous]Telling kids to spin their wheels for a learning nothing, and then to double up later to catch up, is totally insane. Schools should offer a much deeper enriched honors curriculum. But they don't. The teachers who teach Math 6 don't understand math deeply and so can't support advanced learners. So the choice is either accelerate, or paper over the problem at home, or brain rot. And if you ask a Chinese parent why they want to "accelerate" their kid, they'll explain they are just trying to keep up with the curriculum from back home, not accelerate. STEM professional; almost all my coworkers did acceleration and enrichment. [/quote]
