That seems to depend on how far you can go with the Algebra 1 class. You know your kids and your pacing skills better than we do. If the state standards don't tell you where the kids should be after each course, then they aren't much use.<br /><br />Actually, you are lucky to have external standards like the ACT rather then state-written tests. Most states have been doing an absolutely terrible job of writing standardized tests.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467202639598238063.post-79040812324636481232010-09-05T09:55:40.065-05:002010-09-05T09:55:40.065-05:00From my experience, these would be Algebra 2:
