Mathematics at Windsor Mill

Mathematics at Windsor Mill is about more than finding the correct answer. Students build conceptual understanding, explain their reasoning, analyze multiple strategies, persevere through challenging problems, and develop the skills needed for advanced mathematics in high school and beyond.

∑

Every Student Is a Mathematician

Our classrooms are spaces for students to explore, question, make connections, revise their thinking, and learn from one another.

Using Your Resources

How to Get Unstuck

When math feels challenging, use a process instead of immediately giving up on the problem.

01

Find the Unit

Open your grade-level IM page and locate the unit and lesson your class is currently studying.

02

Review the Example

Compare the example or representation to your own work. Look for where your strategy begins to differ.

03

Try It Again

Work the problem again without simply copying the solution. Explain why each step makes sense.

04

Ask a Specific Question

Bring your work to your teacher and explain exactly where your understanding breaks down.
