Math small medium large Everyday Mathematics In Our Classroom In math this year, Double Eagle Elementary School students will be using a program developed by the University of Chicago School Mathematics Project (UCSMP) called Everyday Mathematics. There are six strands of content studied by students: 1) Operations and computation 2) Numeration 3) Patterns, functions, and algebra 4) Data and chance 5) Measurement and reference frames 6) Geometry. In this program, emphasis is placed on linking new knowledge to students' past experiences, discussing and sharing new ideas, using and comparing equivalent expressions, expressing numbers in context by using units, and learning about the reversibility of things. Students in our class will have a daily math message on the screen as a warm up. There will be class activities, the student journal, discussions, games and practice as well as the "at home" component called the "Home Link." Students have been issued a hardback Student Reference Book which contains mathematical essays which provide examples and explanations, a game section, a data section, a glossary of terms, an index, and an answer key for "Check Your Understanding." The reference book may be used at home, but must be brought back to school each day.If you would like some math games to play at home click on my links and the site will be listed. Visit the Parent Homeroom page on the UCSMP page for more information. For lots of math web sites to reinforce skills, all organized by concept also visit the link section of my webpage.
