👉 The Dover Math, also known as the Dover Middle School Mathematics Curriculum, is a comprehensive K-8 mathematics curriculum designed to provide a rigorous and coherent framework for teaching math. It emphasizes conceptual understanding over procedural fluency, aiming to develop deep mathematical reasoning skills from the foundational concepts up to more advanced topics. The curriculum is structured around six core strands: Number and Operations, Algebraic Thinking, Data Analysis and Interpretation, Geometry and Spatial Reasoning, Measurement and Data, and Probability and Statistics. Each strand is further divided into grade-specific standards that guide teachers in delivering lessons that build upon one another, ensuring a cohesive learning experience. The Dover Math is known for its focus on problem-solving and critical thinking, integrating technology and real-world applications to make math more engaging and relevant.
