Math

West Islip Elementary Math Classrooms are aligned to the Next Generation Learning Standards and utilize Reveal Math as our core program for instruction.  Reveal Math includes student consumable workbooks and textbooks along with online access for all K - 5 students.  

Reveal Math is designed to fuel active student engagement and deepen conceptual understanding.  By encouraging curiosity, exploration, and a growth mindset, Reveal Math allows students to see math as a dynamic set of problem-solving strategies instead of the application of memorized algorithmic or computational procedures. This powerful paradigm shift allows students to learn the language of math and demonstrate their fluency all along the road toward standards mastery. 

The independent curriculum review organization EdReports has awarded Reveal Math K–5 green ratings across all three gateways: Focus and Coherence, Rigor and Mathematical Practices, and Usability. EdReports' review, conducted by classroom educators and district leaders, reflects satisfaction from those who know what it takes to promote student success. 

To supplement our core math program, teachers utilize a variety of other tools and resources such as ST Math, First in Math, and Reflex Math to promote curiosity and fluency in our students.  These programs are available on students' ClassLink accounts.
