West Islip Middle School Math courses are aligned with the Next Generation Learning Standards and utilize eMath Instruction as our core instruction program. eMath Instruction includes student-consumable books for select courses and barrier-free online access which includes lessons, practice, and video tutorials.
Students in 8th grade have the option of enrolling in the accelerated high school level Algebra 1 course which ends in a NY State Regents Exam, or they may take the non-accelerated Math 8 course which provides instruction in the 8th grade standards. To accommodate for this, our 7th Grade Principles of Algebra course contains some content from the 8th-grade standards.
To supplement instruction, teachers utilize various tools and resources including Desmos, Delta Math, Castle Learning, First in Math, IXL, and other custom-made materials.
