School just called. They are going to pull my son out of 6th grade math once a week, go to librarian's office, use a computer there, for KHAN academy math. Starting this afternoon.
Any thoughts on this?
They are also planning on administering the Accelerated Grade 7 math test to him soon. I am a little nervous. Just to recap, Accelerated 7 combines both grade 7 and grade 8 curriculum into one year. They told me it's at a "breakneck pace".
1) What kind of score is low enough to suggest it's the right placement for my son in September?
2) What kind of score suggests he's competent enough to actually take Algebra I in September? I asked about an Algebra Readiness test, but the math coordinator says he has not heard about it in NY.
I need to be prepared with my informed opinions for the next conversation. Would appreciate all thoughts...thank you
