Discover the right mathematics strategy to use at each learning phase so all students demonstrate more than a year's worth of learning per school year.
Going Beyond Key Words to Make Sense of Word Problems, Grades 6-8
This book is designed to help teachers and students understand the meaning of operations in a coherent way that makes sense as students move from whole numbers to fractions, decimals, and integers.
Going Beyond Key Words to Make Sense of Word Problems, Grades K-2
Mathematize It! shares a reasoning approach that takes the initial focus off specific numbers and computations and put it on the actions and relationships expressed in the word problem.
Going Beyond Key Words to Make Sense of Word Problems, Grades 3-5
Mathematize It! shares a reasoning approach that takes the initial focus off specific numbers and computations and puts it on the actions and relationships expressed in the word problem.
This expansion of the popular Common Core Mathematics Companions provides indexes for states implementing state-specific mathematics standards and shows which are the same as CCSS-M, which differ and how.

Your user's guide to the mathematics standards In the 12 short months since the ELA versions of The Common Core Companions, Grades K-2 and 3-5, burst on the scene, they've already assisted tens of thousands of teachers with the day-to-day "what you do." Teachers' one big criticism: what about mathematics? Luckily NCTM past-president Linda Gojak and mathematics coach Ruth Harbin Miles stepped up to the task. The result? That version of the mathematics standards you wish you had. Page by page, The Common Core Mathematics Companions clearly lay out: The mathematics embedded in each standard for a deeper understanding of the content Examples of what effective teaching and learning look like in the classroom Connected standards within each domain so teachers can better appreciate how they relate Priorities within clusters so teachers know where to focus their time The three components of rigor: conceptual understanding, procedural skills, and applications Vocabulary and suggested materials for each grade-level band with explicit connections to the standards Common student misconceptions around key mathematical ideas with ways to address them Don't spend another minute poring over the mathematics standards. Gojak and Miles have already done the heavy-lifting for you. Focus instead on how to teach them, using The Common Core Mathematics Companion as your one-stop guide for teaching, planning, assessing, collaborating, and designing powerful mathematics curriculum.
