RUPERT A. NOCK MIDDLE SCHOOL

MATHEMATICS

Curriculum maps in the area of mathematics, are designed to help guide instruction in grades 6 through 8. The Rupert A. Nock Middle School's mathematics curriculum is aligned to the Massachusetts Frameworks. These frameworks are derived from standards and focal points developed by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). The Connected Math Project 2 (CMP2), used at the Middle School, is a program which spirals content and skills from Grade 6 through Grade 8. The purpose of the spiraling curriculum is to develop and strengthen mathematical habits through repeated exposure to core content and skills.
