NC Math I will look different from years past. Wake County Public School System has chosen MVP (Mathematics Vision Project) as the new Math 1 curriculum resource in middle school and high school to support student learning.
The MVP classroom experience does not look like the traditional math classroom that students may have experienced in the past. In the MVP classroom the teacher launches a deep mathematical task and then allows students time to work with a partner or small group on solving the task. The teacher circulates among students and encourages them to explore, question, consider, discuss their ideas, and listen to the ideas of their classmates. Then the teacher brings the whole class back together to discuss different solution pathways and the mathematics involved.
MVP supports strong student engagement. Classrooms are structured with highly collaborative activities that allow students to engage in academic conversations and investigations of rich academic topics.
The READY gets students prepared for the upcoming work and excited to learn new material.
The SET helps students practice the skills that are being developed in the current lesson.
The GO is designed to help students remember the skills and procedures that they have learned previously.
Along with the Ready, Set, Go! we will have a variety of other assignments throughout the year. It is important that students complete all assignments to the best of their ability and turn everything in on the day it is due. It is the student's responsibility to write down all assignments and due dates in the agenda.
