About This Curriculum

The CCSS Mathematics Integrated Pathway consists of three courses (Math I, II, and III) that integrate all conceptual categories from Common Core standards into each course, with each course containing standards from numbers, algebra, geometry, and statistics.

What makes it unique: Problem-based learning approach with customizable, standards-aligned materials available through the Curriculum Engine digital platform, offering on-demand printing and seamless LMS integration.

CCSS Mathematics Integrated Pathway: Project-Based Integrated High School Math

The CCSS Mathematics Integrated Pathway is a three-course high school math curriculum (Math I, II, and III) that integrates algebra, geometry, and statistics standards within each course rather than teaching them separately. Published by Walch Education, it emphasizes project-based learning approaches across grades 9-12.

Best for

High schools seeking an integrated math curriculum approach that combines algebra, geometry, and statistics, particularly those interested in project-based learning methods

Evaluation Criteria

2 concerns · 2 neutral · 5 insufficient evidence

Direct InstructionConcern

The project-based pedagogy may limit opportunities for direct, explicit instruction of foundational mathematical concepts.

Curriculum description emphasizes project-based learning approach, which typically involves less teacher-directed instruction

Conceptual Procedural BalanceConcern

The curriculum partially meets expectations for balancing conceptual understanding, procedural skill, and application according to EdReports.

EdReports Gateway 2 rating of 'Partially Meets Expectations' for rigor and mathematical practices, indicating some gaps in the balance of conceptual understanding and procedural fluency

Word ProblemsNeutral

The project-based approach likely emphasizes application and real-world problem solving.

Project-based pedagogy typically involves authentic problem-solving contexts and application of mathematical concepts

Sequencing ApproachNeutral

The integrated approach combines algebra, geometry, and statistics within each course rather than using traditional sequential math courses.

Curriculum integrates all Common Core conceptual categories into each of the three courses, representing a spiral approach to mathematical topics
