DS is 9 and will be going into the 5th grade next year. Age wise he should be going into 4th but we succeeded in getting a whole grade skip. He did school with a virtual public school for 1.5 years and was about to start 6th grade which is was pre-Alg. class. We had to put him back into a local public school for the last half of the year and they put him into 4th grade math. We tried to get him higher math but they wouldn't. Now, he will be switching to a new school and new principal next year. We just had a meeting with the new principal and he is willing to work with us. We requested that our Ds be placed into the adv. 6th grade math but the principal says b/c of scheduling that wouldn't work. He said that he would be willing to take Music and Art from ds so that he could do a 45 min 6th grade math enrichment but we don't like this option. I have suggested that instead of 5th grade math that Ds be allowed to do an online course during this period. The principal and said he would consider this but we have to present the information to him. I know there is EPGY but ds has tried this and didn't like it. He has done ALEKS and he liked this.
Can ya'll give me any more online math programs? Plus, the area where he would go to do this work he wouldn't have a math teacher so the program must provide really good instructions.
Thank you
