Siena’s middle school math courses work to prepare students for high school level math, specifically concepts related to Algebra. Teachers utilize multisensory techniques (manipulatives, color-coding, interactive games, etc.) to engage students in math concepts such as scale, linear functions, proportionality, and graphing.
Students participate in collaborative activities and simulate real-world scenarios to help them engage and understand the math concepts covered.
When applicable, teachers work across the curriculum, incorporating science topics into the math class and vice versa.
