I need a 15 week math curriculum for an 8th grader who is currently learning the following skills: add and subtract up to 100. Multiply within 12

The 15-Week Numeracy Mastery Journey is designed to help 8th graders develop essential numeracy skills focusing on addition, subtraction, and multiplication. This structured program is divided into three core phases. The first phase emphasizes multi-digit addition while ensuring mastery of carry-over techniques and understanding decimals, aiming to attain accurate mental math for sums up to 1,000. The second phase centers on subtraction skills, teaching regrouping, finding differences, and applying these concepts to real-world scenarios, enabling students to solve 4-digit subtraction problems confidently. The third phase deepens the understanding of multiplication, focusing on multi-digit factors and strategies such as area models and arrays. Through a gradual learning path that includes initial assessments, worked examples, and strategic practice, students will foster a strong foundation in numeracy, preparing them for higher-level math concepts. Reflective exercises and self-assessments are integrated to aid self-awareness in learning and skill readiness.
