UNION SPRINGS - A group of math teachers at the Union Springs Central School District have not let the dog days of summer turn their minds off.
On Wednesday, 12 math teachers representing nearly all grade levels congregated at the Union Springs Middle-High School to prioritize the mathematics curriculum for the 2007-2008 academic year. They will be working on the curriculum through Friday.
Teachers formed groups by grade level to map out New York state's math curriculum. Each aspect of the curriculum was printed on a slip of paper, and teachers had to determine if the concept was essential to math education, requiring 70 percent of instructional time; important, utilizing 20 percent of instructional time; or compact, taking up 10 percent of instructional time.
