Illustrative Mathematics K-12-IM Math is a problem-based core curriculum designed to address content and practice standards to foster learning for all. Students learn by doing math solving problems in mathematical and real-world contexts and constructing arguments using precise language. Teachers can shift their instruction and facilitate student learning with high-leverage routines to guide learners to understand and make connections between concepts and procedures. Write Up A Storm!-Our proprietary research-based reading and writing program spirals horizontally throughout the school year avoiding the isolated lesson syndrome. It also spirals vertically from grade level to grade level — from kindergarten through 12th grade — building on itself as it goes. Information is chunked into manageable pieces as the rigor grows and becomes more complex. The Write Up A Storm!® system provides instructions for building competent confident writers. This comprehensive system aligns with Common Core Writing Standards including sub-components such as: • Writing Process • A variety of Text Types (e.g. Argumentative Opinion Explanatory Informational Narrative) • Elements of Writing FOSS Science K-8- FOSS gives students the opportunity to think and act like scientists and engineers. UC Berkeley’s Lawrence Hall of Science developed FOSS® Next Generation™ for Arizona to present science the way students learn it as they experience phenomena firsthand through active investigation. It’s why FOSS is proven to measurably improve test scores in districts across the country.
