Connecting Math Concepts provides a solid conceptual framework within which students acquire new skills and make connections among previously acquired skills.

Connecting Math Concepts:

• Designed for accelerated cognitive growth

• Focuses on the ‘big ideas’ of mathematics

• Introduces key concepts in a way that is clear and understandable

• Teaches students the connections between concepts as they go
Connecting Math Concepts teaches explicit
strategies that enable students to master new
and progressively more complex topics.

• Detailed explanations and guided practice.
start student off right

• Systematic review and application keep
them moving forward

The series is not intended to serve as a fixed course of study.Instead, it is used to support a high-quality core mathematics programme. A placement test provides a plan that identifies which modules need to be covered.

Each module consists of a Teacher’s Presentation Book, an Answer Key booklet, and one Workbook for each student. Optional customized worksheets for practicing facts, computation, and test-taking formats.

During much of the lesson, you are guiding the lesson, ensuring that the students comprehend new concepts and that individual needs are met directly and effectively. You present exercises, listen to student responses, and correct errors immediately. Serious error patterns don’t have a chance to develop. Students work independently only after you have established that they can successfully complete the activities. The programme provides a complete script of each lesson’s activities. The scripts have been thoroughly tested to ensure that they communicate concepts clearly and are easily understood by students. For you, scripted lessons eliminate time-consuming lesson planning, which means that all your energy can be focused on teaching. For students, scripted lessons provide consistent lesson structure that eliminates anxious guessing about what is expected of them.
