For the upcoming school year Wake County has adopted new materials created by Illustrative Mathematics in collaboration with Open Up Resources. The course contains nine units; each of the first eight are anchored by a few big ideas in grade 8 mathematics such as transformations, linear relationships, volume, and the pythagorean theorem. Units contain between 15 and 20 daily lesson plans. Each unit has a diagnostic assessment for the beginning of the unit and an end-of-unit assessment. Longer units also have a mid-unit assessment. The last unit of the course is structured differently, and contains lessons that will help students apply and tie together big ideas from the year.
