- Bridges' Math
The Bridge's curriculum focuses on developing students' deep understandings of mathematical concepts, proficiency with key skills, and ability to solve complex and novel problems. Bridge's blends direct instruction, structured investigation and open exploration. The program taps into the intelligence strengths of all students by presenting material that is as linguistically, visually and kinesthetically rich as it is mathematically powerful.

Number Corner features daily 20-minute workouts that introduce, reinforce and extend skills and concepts related to the critical areas of study at each grade level. Math becomes less abstract as students work with concrete and visual models related to multi-digit numbers; fractions; developing and using efficient strategies to add, subtract, multiply and divide; measurement quantities and measurement tools; and investigating and analyzing 2-dimensional shapes and their attributes.
