Success in a Common Core Classroom The Common Core State Standards are a topic of much discussion lately. Nevada’s implementation of the CCSS is called the Nevada Academic Content Standards or NACS. The effects the NACS will have, both beneficial and adverse, are hotly debated. But one fact is clear: the NACS are here and parents, students and teachers all over Nevada are working with them every day. Nearly all Clark County schools had implemented the NACS as of the beginning of the 2014/2015 school year. The implementation of the NACS has had a profound impact on the mathematics curriculum in the Clark County schools, from Kindergarten through High School. Classes like Algebra and Geometry have had their course curricula radically changed from what they had been for decades. Elementary grades have seen many math concepts moved from one grade to another while other math concepts have been moved to the middle school curriculum or altogether eliminated. While the efficacy of such changes remains to be seen, one thing is certain: students, parents and teachers alike will need to deal with a difficult transition period over the next few years. At Mathnasium, we use our own proprietary curriculum which focuses on developing a strong mathematical foundation for Algebra and beyond. Our program supports students facing the NACS but allows us more freedom to address each child as an individual. We create a personalized learning plan for each individual student, designed to strengthen any weakness the student may have in his or her developmental framework. We are able to use a diverse array of teaching methods to ensure each student has the opportunity to learn math in a way that makes sense to them. We give each student the best opportunity for success in the math classroom… by any standard. Since 2006, Mathnasium has helped thousands of students in Southern Nevada from both private and public schools achieve greater success in their math classes. Our locations in Green Valley, Summerlin and Rhodes Ranch serve the entire Las Vegas and Henderson areas. For more information on Mathnasium or the NACS, call today: Green Valley 702-445-7683 • Summerlin 702-248-8887 • Rhodes Ranch 702-823-2777
