Math

All students in grades 1-6 use the Everyday Mathematics program from the University of Chicago School Math Project, and published by McGraw Hill 2004. This program teaches three levels of skills:

• Beginning - exposure
• Developing - students show some understanding but may not be able to apply or write the skill.                   
• Secure - expect mastery

Mastery of skills occurs from repeated exposure over 2-3 years. Whole and small group instruction, questioning, dialogue, cooperative learning, and games are important components of this program.
