The new Content Correlation Documents which correlate the new 2010 Mathematics Course of Study with the ARMT + have been posted by the state dept of education. Also on the same page you will find a link to the suggested accelerated math curriculum for 7th grade advanced math and 8th grade Algebra I. This curriculum allows students to cover all of 7th grade and 8th grade new course of study standards as well as complete Alg I in the 8th grade. The link is:@http://alex.state.al.us/ccrs/node/76.

Shared by Belinda McCay (Instructional Partner Blount County Schools): This article was written by the authors of the CCSSM and I hope you find it of interest. The urn analogy describes the importance of the structures of the math standards very clearly. [|http://commoncoretools.me/2012/02/16/the-structure-is-the-standards/#more-422]
