Math CAMMP Curriculum

CAMMP’s philosophy is to enhance children’s understanding of mathematics and its connections to thinking, reasoning, and real world problem–solving. Each CAMMPer receives individual attention from a specially–trained master level teacher. Whether your child is a math whiz or needs review, the CAMMP experience produces logical understanding and helps children find the fun in mathematics.
 

Summer CAMMP emphasizes three basic principles: having fun, learning through hands-on manipulatives, and problem solving. The entire curriculum reflects these principles as students develop a head start for the upcoming school year.

Rising 1^st Graders -- Addition

Rising 2^nd Graders -- Multiplication

Rising 3^rd Graders -- Subtraction

Rising 4^th Graders -- Division/Fractions

Rising 5^th Graders -- Operations on fractions and decimals

Rising 6^th Graders -- Pre Algebra - integers, variables, constants

Placement: CAMMP Directors place children according to their individual math abilities, so the first day of CAMMP is crucial for a happy and challenging experience. Students are typically placed according to their rising grade level. However, for those doing more advanced mathematics or in need of remediation, appropriate math placements are made. Please describe on your application any special needs your child has.  Please talk with your child at the end of the first day. If you think your child’s placement is inappropriate, please contact one of the Directors the first evening so he/she can adjust placement accordingly.
 

Cammpers who attend for multiple weeks receive appropriate placement each week.
