Curriculum


 * Everyday Math **

Our curriculum, //Everyday Mathematics//, was developed by the University of Chicago School Mathematics Project. It is based on research about how children learn and develop mathematical power and provides the broad mathematical background needed in the 21st century.

In //Everyday Mathematics// your child will encounter: • A problem-solving approach based on everyday situations • An instructional approach that revisits concepts regularly • Frequent practice of basic skills, often through games • Lessons based on activities and discussions, not a textbook • Mathematical content that goes beyond basic arithmetic
