[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] BUUUULLSHIIIT!!! First of all, Common Core is a minimum standard. Schools are perfectly free to go above and beyond Common Core. As for geometry, there IS an expectation of Geometry content in Common Core in Middle School grades. http://www.corestandards.org/Math/Content/G/ Also, there is still Pre-Algebra, it's in the 7th and 8th grade standards. Schools are free to move students ahead, provided they've mastered the content, so [b]to say Algebra couldn't be started in 8th grade is not actually valid[/b].[/quote] In fact, Algebra 1 in 8th grade is the grade-level course in the MCPS curriculum aligned to the Common Core standards. So it obviously is possible to do so. http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/curriculum/math/math-curriculum-plan.aspx [/quote]
