The North Carolina Foundations of Math 1 is a complete set of materials developed around the North Carolina Standard Course of Study (NCSCOS) for Mathematics.

The North Carolina Introduction to High School Math, Version 2.0 course was developed and piloted with North Carolina educators. It is designed to prepare high school students for success in Math I/Algebra I and future math courses.

The program provides teacher materials supportive of a classroom culture and professional practices that encourage accurate and engaging mathematical discussions to make the system of mathematics accessible to students. It offers students hands-on experiences and opportunities for discourse that develop and illuminate the central constructs to organize their mathematical thinking.

Introduction to High School Math is not a remedial course in the traditional sense. It works to develop students’ sense of numbers and of how the number system works by engaging them with algebra in a concrete and meaningful fashion, as well as by developing their sense of the structures found within mathematics. Lessons and activities engage students with important concepts in a purposeful three step sequence, from concrete experiences, to reasoning/sense-making discussions and activities, to communication and representation of the mathematics. The program includes various hands-on activities that generate data and create models that allow students to explore, develop, and reinforce fundamental math concepts.

The program is delivered in 2 three-ring binders that include:

• 90 days’ worth of lessons and activities, based on a block schedule
• Essential Standards and Clarifying Objectives for each unit
• Words to Know
• Day-by-day summaries
• Materials Lists
• Warm-Ups
• Direct and Guided Instruction
• Example Dialogue passages to model classroom discourse
• Worksheets and activity templates
• Formative Assessment journal prompts
• Unit Assessments
