We Discover Math is a new, research-based, hands-on Pre K mathematics curriculum that has exploration and discovery at the heart of the program. It features activities and literature as contexts for mathematics, helping students make connections to their own world. The curriculum is based on the NCTM Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, the NCTM Curriculum Focal Points for Pre-Kindergarten, and the recommendations of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).

Project M²: Mentoring Young Mathematicians consists of six units that focus on "in-depth" mathematics using research-based practices and standards in mathematics education and early childhood education. At each K-2 grade level, one unit focuses on geometry and the other on measurement -- concepts that recently were identified as key areas to be emphasized in these grades. Students will advance their mathematical understanding and achievement, be able to explain and justify their reasoning orally and using written representations, and come up with a variety of ways to solve problems.

Math Trailblazers is a research-based K-5 mathematics program that integrates math, science and language arts. Built upon more than 20 years of research, it embodies the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Principles and Standards for School Mathematics and is based on the dual notion that mathematics is best learned by solving problems in real-world contexts and that a curriculum should balance conceptual understanding with procedural skill. Math Trailblazers offers flexibility in teaching practices, lessons, and assessments to create a careful balance between conceptual understanding and procedural skills. Students will acquire problem-solving skills, learn to compute accurately, and develop fluency in the basic facts.
