[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good. It eliminates all of the parents pushing their 5th and 6th graders into Algebra prematurely. Then, surprise! the kid needs a tutor because it’s too advanced. Then they pass with a B or C in a now watered down class. Because of these Tiger moms, the classes are now watered down for everyone else. But hey! They can brag about how advanced their kid is in math![/quote] Do you have any facts or data to support the idea that the kids taking Algebra in 5th and 6th are performing worse than the kids who take it in 7th or 8th? In my experience, many of the kids taking it in 5th or 6th are still bored, because the class has been watered down to accommodate the kids taking it in 8th. [/quote] Still waiting for the facts or data indicating that 5th and 6th graders in Algebra are struggling and are the reason that Algebra has been watered down..... PP? [/quote]
