Elementary School Math Curriculum

If you were in charge, what would elementary school children (that is, grade 7 and below), be expected to learn before going to high school.

I agree that more advanced courses should be taught sooner. The way it is now at my highschool, if you don't take algebra 1 your first year there you basically won't be able to graduate on time, which is insane considering how many people just aren't ready for algebra 1 since they're not really exposed to it in middle school.

And not even with just math, other subjects like English too. I was recommended to go into honors english, so I did. I didn't understand anything. I was expecting it to be like my other lame ass English classes, where it just taught you about punctuation and grammar usage. Instead I have all this symbolism and underlying messages and shit that I had never been exposed to before, all thrown at me at once. Lord of the Flies is about society and human nature? I thought it was about some kids trapped on a fucking island! Why was I not instructed about shit like this before being told to go to honors english?
