Mathematics

Borton uses Engage NY, an online resource for teachers and some lessons from Investigations, in coordination with Project-Based Learning (PBL) and Systems Thinking to implement the Arizona College and Career Readiness Standards (AZCCRS) for Math. The links below will take you several documents that show the complete standards by grade level and also the quarterly focus in TUSD schools.

The math curriculum provides students with the conceptual background necessary to develop deep, sophisticated understanding of mathematics and then introduces the algorithms. Students are taught to problem solve and check that their thinking is flexible, accurate and efficient. This curriculum is spiraled so that students continuously revisit concepts and have multiple opportunities to master content.
