Mathematics CTS Source Material
The Curriculum Topic Study (CTS) approach uses a common collection of nationally available source materials, several that are considered essential "tools of the trade" in science
and mathematics. Having access to these source materials for use with CTS is like having experts at your fingertips, 24/7!
Each of the six sections of a CTS guide provides a choice of two different resources- either to be used together or the user can select one to work with, depending on preference or availability. A key feature of CTS is its flexibility- you can use as many or as few of the resources as your purpose and access demands. All of the resources used in CTS are available through the NSTA or NCTM bookstores or major online book sellers like amazon.com or Barnes and Noble. Several of the resources are also available online.
