Everyday Mathematics is our math program.

It emphasizes problem solving and number sense through practical applications.

The program is based on a “spiral curriculum” design. Therefore, the program touches upon skills many times in many different ways.

Please read the family letter sent home prior to the beginning of each chapter.

Please save this for reference throughout the chapter.
