Abstract
This curriculum project was designed to incorporate student communication and mathematical discourse into Grade 8 Mathematics curriculum. The five non-sequential lessons and learning activities were designed to encourage mathematical discourse between students and their peers. The lessons support the development of conceptual understanding, particularly regarding questions from the New York State Grade 8 Mathematics Test. Topics covered include solving mathematical problems involving volume of cones, using functions to model relationships between quantities, analyzing and solving pairs of simultaneous linear equations, and understanding congruence and similarity. All of these lessons are aligned with the New York State Next Generation Learning Standards for Grade 8 Mathematics
