Reading skills in math class
Submitted by cproctor on Tue, 06/28/2011 - 09:05I came across a really interesting article today which proposes that "Mathematics has a reading protocol all its own, and just as we learn to read literature, we should learn to read mathematics."

Westlake Curriculum Units
Submitted by cproctor on Fri, 05/28/2010 - 13:21If you want to see the curriculum units or make your own, click here (or WHS Units at the top of the page). This is a temporary arrangement; if it seems worthwhile to have our units online, searchable, and shareable, I can set up a separate site just for that. It's also pretty easy to change the way things work, so if you have idea, let me know!
