Connected Mathematics 4

Overview

Overview

Connected Mathematics 4 is the current fourth edition of Michigan State University’s Connected Mathematics curriculum, published by Lab-Aids. Students develop mathematics through contextual problems, collaborative investigation, representations, discussion, reflection, practice, and assessment.

Investigations and student explanations provide evidence across a mathematics learning progression. Teachers connect that work with the adopted edition, problem sequence, and local assessment practices. The adopted edition and implementation determine the available digital records. Curriculum teams and teachers coordinate materials, access, and the interpretation of locally assessed work.

  • Teachers should connect use to explicit learning goals and inspect student work rather than rely on completion, time-on-task, or engagement alone.

Implementation and instructional decisions

  • Confirm whether the district has adopted CMP4 or uses a legacy CMP3 implementation.
  • Districts should confirm accessibility, language support, student-data practices, assignment workflow, reporting, and the continuing role of teacher judgment.
