OVERVIEW

Project M²: Mentoring Young Mathematicians is a series of eight curriculum units designed for grades K-2 to foster inquiry and engage students in critical thinking, problem solving, and communication activities. Aligned to the Common Core State Standards for geometry and measurement, Project M² units focus on "in-depth" mathematics using research-based practices and standards in mathematics education and early childhood education. Level K focuses on geometry and measurement while Levels 1 and 2 focus on geometry, measurement, and numbers. Through the use of engaging characters who guide students through the curriculum, students are led to new learning environments where they can develop reasoning and communication skills related to each area of emphasis.

The latest Number Units for Levels 1 and 2

Level 1 Exploring Number Games: Making Sense of Numbers with Imi & Zani engages students with a deeper understanding of numbers by focusing on important overarching concepts, representation of numbers, and comparing numbers. Throughout the unit, students assist Imi and Zani with solving the Mystery of Number games.

Level 2 Shopping at the Bazaar: Connecting Number and Algebra with the Meerkats explores the ideas of expressions, equations, and the equal sign. During their adventure, students travel to a shopping bazaar to learn about numbers and engage with basic algebraic concepts.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Mathematical Creativity and Giftedness (MCG) is an exciting topic that was overlooked in school education and in the educational research for a long time.

The International Group for MCG brings together mathematics educators, mathematicians, researchers, and others who are inspired to nurture and support the development of mathematical creativity in all and the realization of mathematical promise and mathematical giftedness.

The group history started in 1999 when Hartwig Meissner organized an International Conference on Creativity and Mathematics Education in Muenster, Germany. About 80 participants from more than 20 countries participated. In 2002 Agnis Andzans organized our next conference on Creativity in Mathematics Education and the Education of Gifted Students in Riga, Latvia. About 40 experts from 15 countries discussed the role of creativity and the role of competitions on future developments in mathematics education.
