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 on measurement, students actively engage in the measurement process to co
IM 6–8 MathTM Accelerated, a compressed version of IM 6–8 Math™ 3.1415, is a thoughtful alternative to conventional accelerated programs because its design eliminates the possibility for unfinished learning as students arrive at Algebra 1. It includes all of the standards in IM 6–8 Math and compacts them into a two-year curriculum meant to be covered during the 6th and 7th grades. The pace is faster than IM 6-8 Math, but no crucial mathematical concepts are missed.
The tide never rolls in quite the same way twice. Each swelling of the waves takes with it a little bit of the earth and leaves a little bit behind on the shore. In the same way, none of us arrives in quite the same world—and none of us leaves it unchanged. In Autobiographies and Memoirs, we will explore the unique ways in which each of us experiences the world. How do we each transform it into a place that is a little bit different—and completely our own?

Cycles exist in every part of our world—in math, nature, art, music, and even in our own day-to-day activities. Look at the picture: from the mesmerizing brilliance of the full moon to the mysterious allure of the crescent moon, the lunar phases follow a cyclical pattern of change. Also, as the moon circles the Earth, the moon’s gravitational pull changes the height of ocean tides on Earth. What other cycles of change do you see happening around you?
