Group discussions and projects create an environment where each student's ideas are valued and respected. In this atmosphere, students grow in their ability to construct mathematical understanding and communicate reasoning. Students explore geometry, measurement, algebra, probability, statistics, numeration, number theory, computation, and estimation. Mathematical ideas resurface regularly, and technology is used appropriately. Additional options for assessing student learning, such as portfolios, journals, extended projects, and student interviews, are included.
Technology is used appropriately.
