MathLinks Program Overview
The Program Overview offers a snapshot of the different aspects of the MathLinks textbook and chapters. It takes the three cornerstones of the program: Differentiated Instruction, Problem Solving and Assessment, and highlights what you will find in the chapters related to each topic. In addition, key words that will be needed each lesson are bolded and summarized for your convenience. This document is a must read before starting the program!

Chapter 1 Lesson Planner
The Lesson Planner provides the teacher with completed lesson plans for each section of the chapter. They are designed to follow the intent of the WNCP of teaching depth; therefore, they are designed to purposefully illustrate the time and activities that should be spent on each chapter. The lessons can be edited to suit your own style and to make anecdotal notes for subsequent use.

School jurisdictions wishing to have inservicing on and to use the Lesson Planner for Professional Development will also have the opportunity to build chapter assessment tools to accompany the lessons.
