Overview
Core Curriculum Middle Grades Math Grades 6–8

Connected Mathematics 4 is the current fourth edition of Michigan State University’s Connected Mathematics curriculum, published by Lab-Aids. It is intended primarily for middle-school mathematics learners, with an Algebra 1 pathway, with students, mathematics teachers, coaches, and curriculum leaders using it to support problem-centered mathematics, reasoning, discourse, modeling, connections, and formative assessment.

Students develop mathematics through contextual problems, collaborative investigation, representations, discussion, reflection, practice, and assessment. Districts should evaluate how the product fits adopted curriculum, student needs, instructional time, and the work educators must do around it.

Features
Audience and instructional role
  • Grades / learners: middle-school mathematics learners, with an Algebra 1 pathway
  • Primary users: students, mathematics teachers, coaches, and curriculum leaders
  • Learning focus: problem-centered mathematics, reasoning, discourse, modeling, connections, and formative assessment — the current fourth edition of Michigan State University’s Connected Mathematics curriculum, published by Lab-Aids
How it supports learning
  • Students develop mathematics through contextual problems, collaborative investigation, representations, discussion, reflection, practice, and assessment.
  • Teachers should connect use to explicit learning goals and inspect student work rather than rely on completion, time-on-task, or engagement alone.
Implementation and instructional decisions
  • Rename CMP3 to CMP4 only after confirming the district has adopted the new edition; otherwise retain CMP3 as a legacy implementation and flag it for edition-specific review.
  • Districts should confirm accessibility, language support, student-data practices, assignment workflow, reporting, and the continuing role of teacher judgment.
