What is the new mathematics program on the elementary level? How will this affect the children in taking the NJASK tests?
At the elementary level we use the Math Trailblazers program. This program is geared to be investigative. It is designed to be hands-on and is more problem-solving rather than computational in nature. Many manipulatives are used. The problem-solving focus will prepare students for the many problem-solving, open-ended questions on the NJASK tests.
