3in9th Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 We love Singapore Math! Problem is that the way it's set up prevents nice neat Math categories that colleges like to see, e.g. Algebra I, Geometry I, Algebra II, etc. Has anyone had experience using this curriculum through the HS years and how you "label" it for HS transcripts. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maize Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Our local high school no longer has classes labeled Algebra 1, Geometry, etc. Instead they have Integrated Math 1 (9th grade), Integrated Math 2, and so forth; the only "named" class is Calculus. With Common Core encouraging integrated math instruction I imagine this is becoming more common around the country, should work fine for Singapore.

Ethel Mertz Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Ditto on what Maize said. Our local high school offers the traditionally named courses as one possible track and the integrated math as another track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckymama Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Integrated math is common in our area, at both traditional high schools and the very-difficult-to-get-into math and science charter high school. You'd list the topics covered each year in the course description document for college applications :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
