Essential materials in this source align closely with grade-level content and follow the standards' learning progression, ensuring students' comprehension of essential math concepts as required by specific standards or cluster headings. They are structured to facilitate the acquisition of necessary skills and fluency outlined in the Standards of Mathematical Practice, emphasizing practical applications while maintaining a focus on core content. These materials effectively incorporate practice standards, ensuring they complement and reinforce the Major Work in both teacher and student resources. Tasks and assessments are thoughtfully designed to showcase students' competency in the Standards of Mathematical Practice, enhancing their mathematical reasoning skills. The source offers strong support, differentiation, and intervention for a wide range of learners, gradually allowing students to demonstrate their mathematical understanding independently. Lesson design employs various strategies to help students overcome common challenges and make consistent grade-level progress, with regular assessments measuring individual student progress and focusing on success, particularly in preparation for the AP Exam, with some limitations in ELL support.

Non-negotiable materials must focus coherently on the Major Work of the grade in a way that is consistent with the progressions in the standards. | Student and teachers using the materials as designed devote the majority of time to the Major Work of the grade. | Supporting Work enhances focus and coherence simultaneously by also engaging students in the Major Work of the grade. | Materials follow the grade-by-grade progressions in the Standards. Content from previous or future grades does not unduly interfere. | Lessons that only include mathematics from previous grades are clearly identified. | ||
Essential materials clearly align with the key grade-level content and follow the standards' learning progression. |
