Core-Plus Mathematics, is a standards-based, four-year integrated series covering the same mathematics concepts students learn in the Algebra 1-Geometry-Algebra 2-Precalculus sequence. Concepts from algebra, geometry, probability, and statistics are integrated, and the mathematics is developed using context-centered investigations. Developed by the CORE-Plus Math Project at Western Michigan University with funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), Core-Plus Mathematics is written for all students to be successful in mathematics. Core-Plus Mathematics is the number one high school NSF/reform program and it is published by Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, the nation’s number one secondary mathematics company.
