[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never heard anyone on this board (no less real life) mention algebra in 5th grade.. Not doubting the kids ability but that was not a typical path. Exceptions are still made and if that kid is truly on that high a level, parents should be contacting people outside of the school for guidance.[/quote] Who cares about actual classes, the point is still the terrible decisions made with the implementation of 2.0 Math for Elementary school kids. [/quote] Who cares about actual classes is basically the same as saying who cares about the facts. Evidently, very very rarely, there is a child who may be ready for algebra (formerly a ninth-grade class, now an eighth-grade class) in fifth grade. This child may now not be allowed to take algebra in fifth grade. I don't think that's grounds for condemning the entire elementary school curriculum.[/quote]
