Recommendations for Change
Decrease the number of topics per grade and
limit repetition from year to year
Move from “covering” topics to teaching
them in-depth for long term learning
Teach each topic at the concrete,
representational, and abstract level
Improve connections within mathematics
concepts
NCTM Curriculum Focal Points
Eliminates:
Mile wide, inch deep curriculum
Constant repetition
Emphasizes:
Automatic Recall of basic facts
Computational fluency
Knowledge and skills with understanding
NCTM Curriculum Focal Points
Contains:
3 Big Ideas
3 – 5 Supporting Ideas
Requires:
Mastery of content at each grade level
Teaching in depth
