NV Math Team
At New Visions for Public Schools, we believe that Illustrative Mathematics (IM) offers the most accessible, high-quality, vertically-aligned curriculum available for high school math. Since IM is also a Core Curriculum option for NYC Public Schools, our math professional learning and coaching going forward will focus on the adoption and implementation of IM. For access and more information about IM, go to Using IM Algebra 1.
What is the New Visions Mathematics Curriculum?
Since 2013, Instructional Specialists from New Visions, along with math teachers from across our network of schools, have developed a strong scope and sequence for Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II, along with a rich set of curated and created resources for teaching these courses.
Curricular materials are aligned with the New York State Common Core Learning Standards and the expectations of the Regents Examinations in Mathematics. The New Visions Mathematics Curriculum provides course-wide planning materials including curriculum maps, pacing and spiraling guidelines, and tools for standards alignment. Each unit is designed to equip mathematics educators with a variety of high-quality resources, including both teacher and student-facing materials and assessments.
