| The Kindergarten math
program enables all children to develop a solid foundation in the
language and basic concepts of all areas of mathematics. Mathematics
instruction should build on prior learning. New learning is
presented in increments, with time provided between increments for
practice. Mathematical strands are integrated throughout the year
rather than taught in isolated units. Instruction progresses at a
pace that allows children to develop competence and confidence. Six
instructional components are: The Meeting, The Lesson, Lesson
Practice, Handwriting Practice/Counting practice, Math Center
Activities, and Assessments. |
First Grade math builds on prior
learning. Instruction in Math 1 purposely progresses at a pace that
allows children to develop competence and confidence. New learning
is presented in increments, with time provided between increments
for practice. In Math 1 students practice skills related to
calendar, counting, patterning, weather, graphing, time, money,
place value, tallying, and problem solving/mental computation.
Children use materials, engage in discussions, work in cooperative
groups, and work together to help one another learn. |
Second grade
math builds on prior learning. New learning is presented in
increments, practiced, and then continually reviewed. Skills related
to the calendar, counting, patterning, mental computation,
temperature, time, money, graphing, writing of numbers, fact
families, place value, and problem solving are practiced at the
beginning of the day Math Meeting. Guided practice, daily homework,
fact practice, discussions, work in cooperative groups, use of
manipulatives, and problem solving strategies enable students to
help each other learn math concepts. Text used is Saxon Math 2 by
Nancy Larson. |
| Math is a success-oriented program
that enables all children to develop a solid foundation in the
language and basic concepts of all areas of mathematics. It uses
a multisensory approach to teaching and
is designed for heterogeneously grouped c hildren. Mathematics
builds on prior learning. New learning is presented in increments,
with time provided between increments for practice. Mathematical
strands are integrated throughout the year rather than taught in
isolated units. There are five instructional components, which
include The Meeting, The Lesson, Guided Practice and Homework,
Number Fact Practice, and Assessments. Children progress at a pace
that allows them to develop competence. |
Math is a success-oriented program. It
enables all students to develop a solid foundation in the language
and basic concepts of all areas of math. Math tends to build on
prior learning, therefore, presenting the material in increments and
then providing time for practice is essential for mastery. After the
allowed practice time, students are expected to be proficient in all
areas presented.
Students will learn the basic addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division facts. They will be
proficient in using these skills in place value, decimals,
fractions, money, estimating, telling time, interpreting data, and
reading tables. |
