Each curriculum in the Mathematics Vision Project materials is composed of two main components, the classroom experience, which is designed around the implementation of a specific type of task and the aligned “Ready, Set, Go!“ homework assignment. Each task is accompanied by a set of teacher notes. The teacher notes identify the purpose of the lesson and describe the steps the teacher can take during the classroom experience to ensure that students engage in a rich learning event. Tasks are to be done in class and should not be assigned as homework. There is an aligned “Ready, Set, Go!“ homework assignment for each task. It is the independent practice. Homework serves the student as a type of formative assessment. It is while doing the homework that the student can discern for himself if the mathematics done in class can be performed independently. The MVP classroom experience begins by confronting students with an engaging task and then invites them to grapple with solving it. As students’ ideas emerge, take form, and are shared, the teacher orchestrates the student discussions and explorations towards a focused mathematical goal. As conjectures are made and explored, they evolve into mathematical concepts that the community of learners begins to embrace as effective strategies for analyzing and solving problems. These strategies are eventually solidified into a body of practices and mathematical habits that belong to the students, because they were developed by the students, as an outcome of their own creative and logical thinking. This is how students learn mathematics. They learn by doing mathematics. They learn by needing mathematics. They learn by verbalizing the way they see the mathematical ideas connect and by listening to how their peers perceived the problem. Students then own the mathematics because it is a collective body of knowledge that they have developed over time through guided exploration.
