MATHEMATICS AT CASTILLEJA
Our curriculum is designed to support students in improving their computational skills, extending their conceptual understanding, and enhancing their problem-strategizing abilities. In class, students engage in individual and collaborative problem-solving as they solidify and extend core mathematics skills, explore underlying principles, and discover connections among topics. We encourage our students to discuss, explore, and compare alternative approaches to solving a problem, to promote critical thinking, and to leverage the wide variety of student strengths in the class.
The Mathematics Resource position involves collaborating with teachers and supporting students for 16 hours/week during the school day and running an after-school tutorial 2 times a week.
