[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand why the 6th grade algebra pilot had to be HONORS. I mean they cover one topic in one day and move on. Why couldn’t it be regular algebra, so there is time to cover gaps or give extra time to practice. Our teacher is sending homework home and also bunch of “practice” sheets. I would rather have a nice workbook instead of this mess of papers. And don’t let me start on a textbook…yes, there is mathspace and it’s much better than nothing, but would it kill anyone to just get a damn normal textbook? A normal kid has no chance getting through this class. It really is only for math nerds who look at a problem and just “see it” right away.[/quote]

Shouldn’t have to do this but for those that would like actual textbook, there are good ones for not much on Amazon and they really do help if you as a parent are being asked by your DC to explain something. Kids see screens and videos all day so the hard copy is helpful as different way to explain a concept.[/quote]
