[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of the Montessori kids I know covered ALL of ES math in preschool but I know each school is different. Please know that these children would not have been accommodated under the old system either. When do Montessori kids start algebra? How many AP years do they get in?[/quote] I don't think anyone said Montessori covered up through Algebra and AP? They said their kids had a strong understanding of addition and subrtaction and place value and fractions when leaving Montessori - those topics are most of what is covered in K-2 these days. Yes, with some added word problems and pictures and written explanations - maybe some money and measurement - but these tend to be an easy transition because the foundation from Montessori is strong. It isn't just memorization, it uses manipulatives and the kids can visualize the concepts.[/quote]
