IMPACT Mathematics Course 1 - 3 is designed for grades 6 - 8 with the goal of completing Algebra 1 content by the end of the 8th grade covering Pre-Algebra and Algebra 1 over 3 years. This program has been extensively field tested and has proven to be highly successful in a large urban district with an increase in assessment scores for all students in all three grade levels. IMPACT Mathematics makes the big ideas of mathematics accessible to middle school students through an emphasis on investigation, problem solving, mathematical understanding, and algebra skills. The goal of IMPACT Mathematics remains to help students develop a deep understanding of mathematics with an emphasis on algebra.
Features: - Investigative Instruction - Hands-on exploration of real-world applications that allow student discovery of mathematics concepts while they make connections between different mathematical ideas. - Performance-Based Assessment - Evaluation based on what students know, understand, and show they can do. - Communication Skills - Curriculum that includes discussion and reflection as an integral piece of every step of instruction.
