Qualifying math score and completion of grade 1 or grade 2 math
CTY's Problem Solving and Enrichment Math courses sharpen investigative skills, broaden mathematical understanding of concepts, and enhance reasoning skills. Designed around performance objectives that reflect national and state mathematical standards, these courses demonstrate how mathematical issues arise out of real-life situations. Concepts are assessed through challenging quizzes and module tests. With the guidance of their instructors, students typically select enrichment or supplementary math courses of the appropriate level in between their accelerated courses to ensure a solid foundation and mastery of math concepts at each level. In Elementary Problem Solving I, students work with place value and use online manipulatives to name and represent numbers up to 1,000. They add, subtract, multiply, and divide whole numbers, and investigate simple fractions. They explore volume, area, money, temperature, and time. Students also investigate relational ideas in algebra using number sentences, tables, and linear patterns. This course provides a solid foundation for students who will be advancing into either grade 2 or 3 mathematics.
