Our math teachers encourage students’ growth through problem-solving and hands-on learning and embed mathematical language routines and opportunities for developing students into mathematical thinkers and believe that all students are capable of math literacy, and they deserve to see some beautiful ideas of mathematics.
Our math programs use accessible, meaningful contexts to build on students’ knowledge and are centered around discourse and classroom discussions. The aligned math standards at our schools are built on progressions of topics across grade levels, informed both by research on students' cognitive development and by the logical structure of mathematics. The progressions explain why standards are sequenced the way they are, point out cognitive difficulties and pedagogical solutions, and give more detail on particularly tricky areas of mathematics by Achieve the Core.
