As a non-profit organization, our focus is on ensuring that all students receive a content-rich education. Instead of rote memorization of formulas, we believe in teaching the “story” of math through expertly crafted lessons that are carefully sequenced from PK through Grade 12. Eureka Math is based on a theory of teaching that has been proven to work in this nation and abroad. Our method We created Eureka Math to meet the new levels of rigor and instructional shifts necessary for today’s math classroom. Eureka Math is based on a theory of teaching that is proven to work. The sequencing has been joined with methods of instruction that drive student understanding beyond process to deep mastery of mathematical concepts.
Supportive, not prescriptive As extensive as the resources are in Eureka Math, we believe in the ability of teachers and in their central, irreplaceable role in shaping the classroom experience.

Carl Jones Director of Curriculum Darke County Educational Service Center I have been involved in Mathematics Education for 40+ years and plan to stay involved for a few more.
I spent nine years teaching in Williamsburg, IA and I am indebted to my first mentor there named John Gillaspie. I then spent eleven years teaching at Ansonia, OH. Throughout my career I have flowed back and forth between technology and mathematics. I started working at the Darke County Educational Service Center as a technology coordinator in 1995. I have now (fall 2015) retired as Director of Curriculum of the Darke County ESC. I feel truly blessed by my family, career, and all the people who have been a part of life. Carl.

Common Core Math: Best Resources for High School Educators. Common Core has certainly raised some questions -- from what assessment will look like, to curriculum development and how the standards are in practice.
There are others, I'm sure. But currently, education nonprofits and researchers are developing materials to help educators, parents and students understand them. With that in mind, here are some of the best resources for understanding how Common Core will shift high school math classrooms, with example videos, articles about assessment and lists of tech tools for educators. Common Core Assessment Examples for High School Math: Assessment changes are coming with the CCSS; that's for sure. But how will they look like? EngageNY.
ExploreLearning Gizmos: Math & Science Simulations Powering Inquiry and Understanding. Common Core standards shake up the education business. New York State has become the epicenter of a major transformation in the $7 billion textbook industry that threatens the preeminence of publishing behemoths like Pearson. A few large companies have monopolized the business for decades, although lately, districts have begun to move away from printed textbooks.
Now, the new Common Core State Standards in math and English are accelerating the trend as schools overhaul curricula to meet tougher academic guidelines. Small nonprofits, education technology startups, and companies that have never dabbled in producing educational content are stepping up to create learning apps and even full curricula that schools can use in addition to—or in place of—their old textbooks. New York has been the most prominent state to toss aside the old business model of relying on textbooks printed by the publishing giants. The large publishing companies, including Pearson and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, balked. “What they got is not what we deliver,” Cohen said.
Education Week. Published Online: March 4, 2015 The first round of a Consumer Reports-style review for instructional materials paints a dismal picture of the textbook-publishing industry’s response to new standards: Seventeen of 20 math series reviewed were judged as failing to live up to claims that they are aligned to the common core. The reviews, released online Wednesday by the nonprofit EdReports.org, were conducted by small groups of teachers and instructional leaders from across the country. They looked at digital and print K-8 mathematics materials from widely used publishers—including Pearson, McGraw-Hill, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt—as well as from some lesser-known providers whose texts passed state review processes.
The results echo previous alignment studies conducted by university-based researchers. In all, just one curriculum series stood out from the pack. Infographic: See How Math Programs Rated EdReports.org was spearheaded by Maria M. Collecting Evidence Jay A. Early Reactions Ms. Math Programs: How They Rate on Common-Core Alignment. Based on market share and states’ recommendations, EdReports.org selected 20 math instructional series to review for common-core alignment. (For reporting purposes, K-5 and 6-8 texts from the same publisher were considered separate series.) Small teams of educators scored the digital and print texts on focus, coherence, rigor, and usability. In addition to individual grade-level ratings, EdReports.org gave summative ratings for each grade band (K-2, 3-5, and 6-8). Eureka Math was the only program that met the expectations for alignment to the Common Core State Standards at every grade level reviewed.

How Common Core is killing the textbook. BERKELEY, Calif. — On a sunny January afternoon, the heaviest things in six-year-old Miriam Foster’s backpack were her lunch box and her jacket, making it manageable for the kindergartener’s walk home. “She does it herself from here to home, and home to here,” said Miriam’s mom, Tawankon Foster, 31. Her light load was not unique. At Emerson Elementary School in Berkeley, California, the occasional library book provides some heft, but the 20-pound pack is a thing of the past. After adopting the new Common Core standards, Berkeley has become one of an increasing number of districts across the country to reject textbooks or workbooks — at least for some classes. The new Common Core standards for kindergarten through 12th grade were widely expected to be a boon to textbook publishers, making it easier to market the same books in the 40-plus states that have fully adopted them.
Instead, the standards may be rushing what many now see as the inevitable disappearance of the textbook.
