  • Whoo! Bellevue!

  • I hated this math program. Fortunately my kids also go to Japanese school and they did't depend on the Bellevue school district for math. They're using Expressions this year which is better.

  • I've taught with Investigations for many years and I've watched my own kids learn using Investigations and with other programs. There are many aspects of Investigations that I admire and I do think that our new program includes enough opportunities for inquiry that the students won't lose that piece. However, Investigations never provided enough practice plus some kids would remain stuck at very low (less efficient strategies) levels because they never quite figured out the algorithms.

  • Funny how Investigations still got #3 from the state in terms of alignment with our new PE's... but Expressions was 4th, right?

    I don't know, I think inquiry based curricula really makes students have a deeper understanding of math concepts, instead of just doing what a teacher tells them (not really truly understanding).

    Ahh... who sponsored this video!?! Kids who used to hate math LOVE investigations because it is approachable and accepts multiple learning styles. Parents need to get wise!

  • Fortunately, we are using a new math curriculum this year ('08-'09)which is Math Expressions (elementary). Please check it out- it is a great program and the teachers are thrilled (and I think parents will be also)! Not anything like Investigations!

  • These parents are showing their own ignorance in making this video. The parents have trouble helping their students because they never really mastered the concepts, and they are blaming the curriculum.

    How many times have you heard someone say, "Just show me the formula and I can do it?"

    This curriculum enables students to approach and solve any problem without memorizing formulas.

  • To bad i live in king county the one right next to bellvue

    Luckly im a senior as of 2008, i never had to learn TURK

    but many of my younger cousins are indeed learning this system, my god its bad.

    w/e regradless of how important you think math is, this system is a poor choice and needs to be known.

  • Your logical thinking skills are just as good as your spelling and grammar, it seems. (i.e. nonexistant)

    Have fun with your delusion that maths are unimportant.

  • .Rationally, it's still not important just their./ You need too watch a little movie called the phantom tollbooth and maybe remove the wad of panties from up your incredibly large ass..

    numbers are only part of the picture.. so chill out fucKtard./I am sure you are an incredible pleasure too be around..
