The Nexus boys, grades 4-7 will use the Math Mammoth Light Blue Series. As seen on the website for Math Mammoth, some of the main features of the curriculum are:

• It is mastery-oriented and organized into chapters by topics. Thus, in each chapter the curriculum concentrates on one theme and its connecting topics (such as place value, multiplication, or geometry). Each grade level typically contains 8-10 chapters.
• ​The curriculum focuses strongly on conceptual understanding.
• Visual models and exercises are used a lot.
• Mental math and number sense are emphasized.
• The curriculum is nearly self-teaching for many children, since the full explanations of concepts are included in the student books. 
• ​There are free videos that are matched to the curriculum. These videos can be found online and can be used at home to supplement classroom instruction. 
• The curriculum meets and exceeds the Common Core Standards
