We cleaned out the middle schooler's backpack yesterday and as a responsible parent, I went through her text books, trying to check how much of it was covered already. They are barely at the half way mark, and the state testing is four months away.
Ex: they are teaching chapter 4, and there are 12 of them in Math.
Same thing with Social studies and Science.
I think they are on track with the reading and language arts.
As a parent, what do you do? Teach ahead, or just coach/help with whatever they can't deal with as the teacher starts jumping/speeding thru the chapters? I am little worried, thinking of teaching a chapter ahead in science and math, letting her study Social studies on her own.
Your two cents?
(No wonder her school went from being number one to 23)
