🎉 The California State Board of Education has officially approved Eureka Math² California! Created for teachers, by teachers, Eureka Math² California helps students build deep conceptual understanding while strengthening procedural skills and math fluency. We’re honored to equip California educators with the resources and support they need to make math success a reality for every student across the Golden State. Together, we’re building confidence and sparking curiosity. Read the full announcement: https://ow.ly/hkOB50XrcJq #CaliforniaEducator #K12California
📈 Geodes + implementation support = significant gains in reading fluency for first-grade students in NYC. Susan Neuman's recent study found that when teachers had access to Geodes, a collection of decodable, knowledge-building texts, and implementation support, students achieved even greater gains in reading fluency and comprehension. Learn more about Geodes’ impact here: https://ow.ly/2BJW50Xo6bu
Observing a Great Minds demo lesson through students’ eyes highlights the joy and curiosity that inquiry brings to learning. 💡🦑
"…until they were up to their shoulders inside the whale's three stomachs..." 🐋Is there a more compelling hook for curious, young readers?! Had the joy of experiencing a live Great Minds Arts & Letters lesson with a group of Massachusetts educators, where we learned about squid beaks, suffixes, and both the syllable breakdown and meaning of a sperm whale au-top-sy. 🦑 When literacy learning is rooted in inquiry and connection, classrooms buzz with energy while students build enduring knowledge 🧠

For decades, the field has asked: what works in reading. Dr. Susan Neuman's latest study on Geodes reminds us that’s only half the question. The real one is: under what conditions does it work? Her findings show that high-quality materials matter—but so do the systems, supports, and relationships that bring them to life in classrooms. At Great Minds, we’re taking these insights to heart—strengthening our teacher supports, deepening coherence, and designing for real impact. Because when we design for the classroom, not just from research, we get closer to our vision: every child experiencing joyful, knowledge-rich learning every day. https://lnkd.in/e7zFqbHK

Cortney Kuzma and I are excited to connect with district leaders and share more about Great Minds new Eureka Math Squared Florida edition at the FOIL Florida conference!
A spark of joy, a classroom full of curiosity, and a team committed to building knowledge. Our Great Minds representatives, Jill Buuck and Phalan Richmond, M.A, are supporting teachers and students at Falmouth Elementary School in Maine as they bring Arts & Letters to life. From creative bulletin boards inspired by The Anglerfish and The Giant Squid, this is knowledge-building in action. #ELACurriculum

Did you catch yesterday’s edWebinar The Power of Consistency in Math Instruction: Leaning Into Routines for Impactful Teaching? Thanks to Great Minds! #edWebinar https://lnkd.in/e_2nhtVx
Research shows that interleaving practice, mixing different problem types in a single set, helps students: ✓ strengthen understanding, ✓ improve long-term retention, and ✓ develop the ability to choose and apply the right strategy for each problem. In the Apply book, a core component of the Eureka Math² curriculum, you’ll notice practice problems are designed with interleaving in mind. Students are challenged to think critically and apply multiple strategies, building deeper mathematical understanding. ️ Swipe to explore a Grade 4 Module 1 Practice Set. ➡️ #MathPractice #MathResearch #MathEducation
