[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, if your kid is getting Bs in AIM, I would seriously consider dropping to 7+ next year to repeat prealgebra content with the Illustrative Mathematics curriculum. They need a really strong foundation to do well in algebra and beyond. [/quote]

PP here - yes, that is what I was thinking about.  Any ideas about what is the best way to learn (efficiently, without hand-reviewing every lesson) what concepts are a) being taught in AIM and in 7+; and b) most important for success at future levels?  I'd be interested in providing some at-home support (which I can do myself), but with triage.  DC is a completely neutral student of mathematics - wants to do well in school generally and has a strong urge towards compliance, but has absolutely no curiosity about anything mathematical or scientific.

Maybe this makes DC an outlier on DCUM.  I feel like all I ever hear about is kids who want more math, more math, more math.  Is there anyone out there who feels like this is just way more than necessary, even at the non-accelerated levels?[/quote]
