Walden University

Program Details

Middle school is a critical time in children’s math development and learning. You can help children build on their math skills to ensure school success with a specialization in Mathematics (Grades 5–8; Non-Licensure). In this specialization, you can expand your own mathematical expertise to develop more effective mathematics teaching practices. Help prepare your students for mathematics success in high school with courses that explore the Common Core State Standards. Examine key topics taught in middle school mathematics programs, including number systems and operations, geometric thinking and measurement, functions and equations, and data, probability, and statistical reasoning. Courses in this specialization are aligned with the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics’ (NCTM’s) Principles and Standards for School Mathematics.
