The Connected Mathematics
Project (CMP) is a Math
curriculum designed specifically
for grades 6, 7, and 8. It is a
rigorous curriculum connecting
different areas within
Mathematics to applications in
the world outside of school.
Each unit is focused around
problem situations that help
students to learn an important
set of related mathematical
ideas and to become skillful at
using these ideas to solve
problems. At times students are
required to work in small teams
to communicate strategies and
utilize reasoning skills to
deepen their mathematical
understanding. Practice with
the ideas and skills are
provided throughout each unit in
the Applications-Connections-Extensions
(ACE) questions assigned for
homework.
