The words "October 2023's New Teacher Tools" over floating red and orange leaves for fall.

Happy Fall, y’all! The weather is getting colder and the colors more spectacular, at least here in the Northeast.

The Pen(cil) Is Mightier Than the Screen: Math Must Be Written Out

Pencil on worksheet with math problems.

This might sound counterintuitive coming from a company that has literally hundreds of online math lessons available on YouTube, but for math to be learned well, students must practice on paper.  Study after study has shown as much: – A 2020 study by the Reboot Foundation found that of students using an online math tool, those who were encouraged to do their calculations using pencil and paper did an average of 13 points better than those who weren’t.  – A… Read more »

Colorful Map of the U.S.

Every state has its own state bird, its own culinary stand-outs, its own unique personality, and its own math standards. So how can teachers be sure our eMATHinstruction materials meet their state’s math standards? By using our new Standards Alignment Tool!  eMATHinstruction curricula were originally designed to align to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS).  Our new N-Gen Math series is designed around the Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards (NGMLS), which are very similar to the CCSS.  In fact, most state standards are… Read more »
