Math Thematics - The Math Thematics program
is designed to implement the NCTM Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School
Mathematics. The goal is to develop math power in all students by actively
engaging users in investigating, discovering and applying mathematics. The
program emphasizes critical thinking, reasoning and problem solving, viewing
math as relevant to real-life and connected to other areas, and being able to
communicate about and through mathematics.

Honors Math
Connected Math - Connected Mathematics
is comprised of
several student booklets. Each workbook organizes around an important
mathematical idea. Connected Mathematics develops content from five mathematical
strands: numbers and operations, geometry, measurement, data analysis and
probability, and algebra. Students will be exposed to problems that are
real-world or whimsical situations, and other problems will be purely
mathematical.

Calculators
Calculators are a tool and are used as such when
appropriate. Many units in 7th grade are
computation units and therefore calculators are not allowed. There are
certain problem solving units and formula building units where calculators are
allowed.
