nyWhere Learning System: Curriculum, Mathematics


A+LS™ Mathematics is a comprehensive, completely managed curriculum developed for grades one through advanced secondary level. Using the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards as guidelines, each mathematics title provides a wealth of content that is supported by pictures and diagrams. Onscreen manipulatives such as scientific and standard calculators assist students with their work. All titles have extensive tutorial support and are fully correlated to major mastery standards and many leading adopted textbooks.

Using the four step approach of A+LS (Study Guide, Practice Test, Mastery Test, and Essay) the curriculum follows the successfully proven tactic of introducing a concept, fully explaining it, and using examples to reinforce understanding of the concept.

Upper level mathematics titles give students the opportunity to answer questions and receive interactive feedback to enhance their understanding. Students develop their skills in common sense, mental math, estimation, and other methods to solve problems and check answers for reasonableness. Each lesson has an optional essay to support the lesson, which, in many cases, asks students to show their work in problem solving.

quantileMany of the A+LS Mathematics lessons have an assigned Quantile® measure. You can download a list that shows the Quantile measure for our Mathematics lessons here.
