All grade levels will be preparing for FAST or EOC Exams that will test them on their respective state course standards. In addition to the daily review that the students receive in class, there will be a more intense focus on the standards through a variety of venues including web based programs, and collaborative learning.
Project M²: Mentoring Young Mathematicians is a series of eight
curriculum units designed for grades K-2 to foster inquiry and
engage students in critical thinking, problem solving, and
communication activities. Aligned to the State Standards for
geometry and measurement, Project M² units focus on “in-depth”
mathematics using research-based practices and standards in
mathematics education and early childhood education. Level K
focuses on geometry and measurement while Levels 1 and 2 focus
on geometry, measurement, and numbers. Through the use of
engaging characters who guide students through the curriculum,
students are led to new learning environments where they can
develop reasoning and communication skills related to each area of
emphasis.
Project M3 : Mentoring Mathematical Minds is a series of curriculum
units developed to motivate and challenge mathematically talented
students at the elementary level. Project M3 has long been
recognized as one of the nation’s top programs in gifted
mathematics education and is now available in Flourish. Project
M3 delivers even more ways for teachers to motivate and challenge
advanced students in grades 3-6. The Project M3
curriculum features
explorations of simulated or real-life problems so students can
actively solve them in the same ways that practicing mathematicians
do.
Math Innovations is a coherent and focused middle grades
curriculum that aligns to State Standards and is designed to engage
students in gaining a richer, deeper, and more proficient
understanding of mathematics. Mathematical ideas are presented in
a real-world context to help students understand how math is related
and relevant to their daily lives. The curriculum consists of three
levels, that address critical mathematic areas and supports student
learning with a variety of real-life problem-solving scenarios that are
addressed through activities, games, and investigations.
