Connections, a book in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 6–8, gives students the opportunity to explore mathematics through real-world applications.
The books in Prufrock’s new Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kits employ a differentiated, integrated curriculum based on broad themes. This all-in-one curriculum helps teachers save planning time, ensure compliance with national standards, and most importantly, pique their students’ natural excitement and interest in discovery.
By participating in the wide variety of activities in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 6–8, students will discover the connections that exist around them while they gain a lifelong desire to learn. The problems presented are open-ended and allow a true examination of the complexity of mathematics. Activities revolve around the study of fractions, decimals, functions, patterns, geometry, and more. In one particular activity, students learn to calculate nautical measurements.
Connections, along with the other books in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 6–8 (Ages, Conflicts, Images, and Powers), makes teaching advanced learners easier!
