Math Resources

Common Core Math

  We are all aware of the rigor that common core brings. And I feel as though, math is often put on the back burner. Recently a new law has passed that requires students to "read by 3." This implementation means that a lot of focus will go into ELA standards and math will be left in the dark. 

BUT !!

It doesn't have to be! I have some great resources to share with you. 

Zearn.org is a great website which is free. You can sign up and add student accounts. Perhaps choose students who need the extra instruction and have them log on to complete work after your math lesson. You can also set up accounts for students and use it as a center. Or best of all, you can use it whole group! It has videos for each standard (lesson) and interactive problem solving, as well as number talks and sprints!

Khan Academy is very similar to Zearn. In which you can set up students account or use whole group. However Khan is more centered on skill rather than standard (ex. Addition with carrying v.s 2.O.A.3)

Engage New York has an entire curriculum set up for math. Broken down into Modules for each standard. Each Lesson is complete with Number Talks, Sprints, Concept Development, Problem Set, Debrief, Exit Ticket, and Homework. A really great resource if you are wondering how to teach a standard or where to get rigorous problem sets for students.
