Overview
-
The teaching and learning of mathematics begins in a math rich environment. The activities, tasks, and discourse provide a framework for the development of mathematical power in all learners. Mathematical power (NCTM, 2000) is unmistakable in learners that exhibit conceptual and procedural understandings. It is evident in learners that can communicate mathematically, reason logically, problem solve, and exhibit a disposition to persevere. The emphasis of the math curriculum is on numbers and operations, algebraic concepts, geometry, measurement, data, and probability. Constantly changing technology is influencing careers in all fields. To prepare our students for these new and exciting opportunities, the 有料盒子 Bucks School District offers a mathematics program with a variety of courses combining traditional theory with practical application. Because of the sequential development of the mathematics curriculum, students must attain the prerequisites in the previous course before advancing to a more difficult level. Students with lower grades are encouraged to repeat courses in order to master concepts required for sequential classes. Four high school mathematics credits are required (starting in 9th grade) for graduation.
