[quote=Anonymous]They had a webinar about this last month. You can find the recording and slides here:

https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/curriculum/math/es/

Geometry will be moved into the Integrated Algebra 1&2 courses, but not all of it. Some will be added to Math 8, some to the precalc, and some not taught at all. Trig functions will be moved to precalc. You can see in the slides the future course progression. There is no mention of an 2 year precalc sequence. Everything is moved up a year.

They also went over the changes to elementary math, and there were a lot more changes than I expected, with most of it starting next school year. What they are teaching isn't changing much, except maybe the sequencing. They are reducing or eliminating tracking but implementing automatic acceleration based on MCAP scores in grades 3-6. Not sure how that will work out. They talked about "purposely and regularly regrouping students" in grades 2-5.

The state still hasn't issued guidance on acceleration or student support so I think they are waiting for that.[/quote]
