Math at Sora

Like all of Sora’s learning experiences, our math program emphasizes meaning-based and mastery-oriented learning. Math serves as a tool for making sense of and improving our world. Students still strengthen their math muscles with practice and problem sets, but to the end of creating a fantastic project, not taking a high-stakes test.

This hands-on exploration lays the groundwork for tackling central project questions, seamlessly integrating math into the complex, practical, and messy aspects of real-world learning.

Math is a stand-alone expedition at Sora, integrated with other subjects and expeditions. Students learn mathematical skills in their dedicated math meetings (classes) while demonstrating mastery of real-world projects.
