[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The trouble with not getting into compacted math is that if your kid is a fast learner, they are stuck in a class that teaches at a v...e...r...y.........s....l.....o......w pace. They get bored and frustrated and feel like they are wasting time. That is the problem for my child. [/quote] The v...e...r...y.........s....l.....o......w pace gets you to Algebra I in 8th grade and AP Calculus A/B in 12th grade for [i]grade-level[/i] math. How much faster should the pace for grade-level math be? AP Calculus B/C in 12th grade? Multivariable calculus in 12th grade?[/quote] I would say the pace for a fast learner should be quicker than it is for on grade level math. If a kid has the ability to do multi variable in 12th grad then that is the path that child should be on, rather than sitting in class frustrated out of boredom at the very slow pace.[/quote]
