Foundations of Mathematics 120 Curriculum

By: Language: English Publication details: New Brunswick : New Brunswick Department of Education and Early Childhood Development, 2015Description: 77 p. : ill. ; (bound book)Subject(s): Online resources: Summary: Mathematics curriculum is shaped by a vision which fosters the development of mathematically literate students who can extend and apply their learning and who are effective participants in society. It is essential the mathematics curriculum reflects current research in mathematics instruction. To achieve this goal, The Common Curriculum Framework for Grades 10–12 Mathematics: Western and Northern Canadian Protocol has been adopted as the basis for a revised mathematics curriculum in New Brunswick. The Common Curriculum Framework was developed by the seven ministries of education (Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Saskatchewan and Yukon Territory) in collaboration with teachers, administrators, parents, business representatives, post-secondary educators and others. The framework identifies beliefs about mathematics, general and specific student outcomes, and achievement indicators agreed upon by the seven jurisdictions. This document is based on both national and international research by the WNCP and the NCTM. There is an emphasis in the New Brunswick curriculum on particular key concepts at each Grade which will result in greater depth of understanding and ultimately stronger student achievement. There is also a greater emphasis on number sense and operations concepts in the early Grades to ensure students develop a solid foundation in numeracy. The intent of this document is to clearly communicate high expectations for students in mathematics education to all education partners. Because of the emphasis placed on key concepts at each Grade level, time needs to be taken to ensure mastery of these concepts. Students must learn mathematics with understanding, actively building new knowledge from experience and prior knowledge (NCTM Principles and Standards, 2000).

Mathematics curriculum is shaped by a vision which fosters the development of mathematically
literate students who can extend and apply their learning and who are effective participants in
society.

It is essential the mathematics curriculum reflects current research in mathematics instruction.
To achieve this goal, The Common Curriculum Framework for Grades 10–12 Mathematics:
Western and Northern Canadian Protocol has been adopted as the basis for a revised
mathematics curriculum in New Brunswick. The Common Curriculum Framework was
developed by the seven ministries of education (Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Northwest
Territories, Nunavut, Saskatchewan and Yukon Territory) in collaboration with teachers,
administrators, parents, business representatives, post-secondary educators and others.

The framework identifies beliefs about mathematics, general and specific student outcomes,
and achievement indicators agreed upon by the seven jurisdictions. This document is based on
both national and international research by the WNCP and the NCTM.

There is an emphasis in the New Brunswick curriculum on particular key concepts at each
Grade which will result in greater depth of understanding and ultimately stronger student
achievement. There is also a greater emphasis on number sense and operations concepts in
the early Grades to ensure students develop a solid foundation in numeracy.

The intent of this document is to clearly communicate high expectations for students in
mathematics education to all education partners. Because of the emphasis placed on key
concepts at each Grade level, time needs to be taken to ensure mastery of these concepts.
Students must learn mathematics with understanding, actively building new knowledge from
experience and prior knowledge (NCTM Principles and Standards, 2000).
