The Student Mathematician’s Journal allows students to explore simulated or real-life problems and help them to think, write, and read like mathematicians. It encourages students to reflect on what they have learned in each lesson, think deeply about mathematics, and communicate in writing on worksheets.
In this unit, students explore our numeration system in depth and discover a stone wit
In 2187 of the Fifth Long Age, a mother he did not remember brought Isker Bey into the world and into the slavery that burdened all the survivors of the conquered Bensahari nation. Ripped from the only family he did remember at the age of four, Isker found himself in the violence-prone dormitories of the Labor Ministry, in preparation for a life of servitude - to the Harapis, or the Sarakans, or perhaps even the Zenhai. Ten years he endured the horrors of the only place he knew. In 2201 of the Fifth Long Age, t

The World Turned Upside Down: The American Revolution
Grades 4-5
Intensive document analysis and exploration of the concept of cause and effect form the foundation of this unit, which focuses on the Revolutionary period in American history. The unit explores the chronology and major event
In this unit, students are introduced to ratios, rates, proportional reasoning, similarity and congruence. Students explore ratio as a comparison of two quantities. They discover that if the ratio between the corresponding side lengths and angle measures of two figures is 1:1 (i.e., the measures are identical), then the geometric figures are congruent. They learn that for two figures to be similar, their corresponding side lengths must be in proportion and their corresponding angles must be congruent. Students also explore the relationship between congruence and similarity, learning that al
