Synopsis

Common Core Mathematics is the most comprehensive CCSS-based mathematics curriculum available today.

• The modules are sequenced and paced to support the teaching of mathematics as an unfolding story that follows the logic of mathematics itself.
• They embody the instructional "shifts" and the standards for mathematical practice demanded by the CCSS.
• Each module contains a sequence of lessons that combine conceptual understanding, fluency, and application to meet the demands of each topic in the module.
• Formative assessments are included to support data-driven instruction.
• The modules are written by teams of master teachers and mathematicians.

The New York Edition is nearly identical to the national version but available earlier for the 2013-2014 school year.

About this title

From the Back Cover

Eureka Math
A Story of Ratios

Eureka Math is based on the theory that mathematical knowledge is conveyed most clearly and effectively when it is taught in a sequence that follows the "story" of mathematics itself. In A Story of Ratios, our middle school curriculum, this sequencing has been joined with methods of instruction that have been proven to work, in this nation and abroad. These methods drive student understanding beyond process to deep mastery of mathematical concepts. The goal of Eureka Math is to produce students who are not merely literate, but fluent, in mathematics.

This teacher edition is a companion to Eureka Math online and EngageNY.
