We started using Khan Academy a few weeks ago, and my daughter, age 8, just loves it. I hadn't been paying much attention until today when I looked at her level of accomplishments. I had put her in the 3rd grade level to see what she had accomplished, but it showed that she had "mastered" from 10% - 20% of 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th grade work (she was just randomly picking activities). She has even "mastered" 9% of 8th grade work. Now, this makes me doubt that Khan Academy is accurate grade-wise. What are these "masteries" really showing us?
I was using this to assess her skill sets in 3rd and 4th grade as she has been nominated by the AG teacher for single subject acceleration, and I want to know if she really knows her math work. She is currently in third grade.
Thanks!!
