Course Description
The elementary mathematics curriculum of the Boise
School District will be vibrant, challenging, and child
centered. With consideration for children's needs and
their development, the followings NCTM strands, which
are of equal importance, will comprise the elementary
mathematics curriculum: (1) Numbers and Numeration,
(2) Organizing and Interpreting Data, (3) Problem Solving,
(4) Measurement, (5) Geometry, (6) Technology, and
(7) Algebra - the language of mathematics. However,
instruction will be structured as a spiral of strands
to insure that children will experience mathematics
as a unified whole rather than as a set of disjointed,
unrelated parts. In particular, problem-solving and
technology should serve to integrate the curriculum
across the strands and among other disciplines.
Meaning and understanding of mathematics rests upon
the foundation of mathematical concepts developed through
experience with concrete manipulatives. It is recommended
that manipulatives be used as often as possible. Concepts
and skills should not be taught in isolation. Both
are built on students' past knowledge through meaningful
examples and experiences, and students should be provided
ample opportunities to apply them to practical, real-life
situations.
