1. McGraw-Hill Wright Group Everyday Mathematics, Common Core Edition The University of Chicago School Mathematics Project © 2012 Available Summer, 2011

2. Common Core Overall Message “The authors of Everyday Math have found that the CCSS are based on much of the same research and expertise as Everyday Mathematics. The CCSS are minimum standards for all students. These new standards are not final. We know that you need help now to begin implementing CCSS, so we are making changes that will align Everyday Mathematics to CCSS at every grade level from K-6.”

5. Domain: Operations and Algebraic Thinking Standard: Add and subtract within 20. Fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies. By end of Grade 2, know from memory all sums of two one-digit numbers.

9. Common Core Hits Not written for CCSS… ©2007 lessons will be “adjusted” Only 2 lessons are listed as new All current ©2007 lessons and units are still there

10. Common Core Hits Not organized for CCSS… All units are still organized by 3 areas of focus and the same grade-level Goals as in the ©2007 program. Areas of focus and grade-level goals are not directly connected to the CCSS. There are no organizational changes from the 2007 copyright.

11. Common Core Hits No CCSS labels in lesson examples… Does not provide the explicit support teachers need to feel confident about implementation of the CCSS, both Content and Practices. Lack of point of use identification of the CCSS information makes planning and teaching difficult and inefficient.

12. Common Core Hits EDM authors have been critical of the CCSS… “We believe that the proposed CCS standards for mathematics in Grades K-6 would promote a back-to-basics curriculum that ignores the profound changes that have taken place in the last 50 years.” Since the authors have many reservations about CCSS, they have chosen to retain the organization and structure of the 2007 program, rather than developing a new program that is written for the CCSS.

13. Common Core Blocks They’ll say, “This updated edition will include new and revised lessons at every grade level to ensure that Everyday Mathematics meets and exceeds CCSS.” The Block: The new lesson examples do not have explicit CCSS labeling or support in them as in enVisionMATH Common Core. In fact, only two new lessons are listed.

14. Common Core Blocks They’ll say, “EDM embodies a well-articulated, coherent curriculum. In fact, no other mathematics program available has a set of goals as explicit and well articulated as EDM.” The Block: The EDM 2007 curriculum was developed long before the CCSS were approved and released. enVisionMATH CC is written for the CCSS – Big Ideas and Essential Questions provide the organizational structure and directly connect to the Domains, Critical Areas, and CCSS.

15. Common Core Blocks They’ll say, “The CCSS offer a set of minimum standards. Topics in probability are not required by the CCSS until Grade 6. But these topics offer excellent applications of the Standards for Mathematical practice and help prepare students for careers…. EDM includes lessons on probability throughout Grades K-6” The Block: Positioning extraneous content as an opportunity to apply Standards for Mathematical Practice is a good marketing spin, but does not support the idea of focused standards.

16. Common Core Blocks They’ll say, “Research shows that students learn and retain more when they practice skills over time. In EDM, every lesson allows students to revisit and practice previously introduced concepts and skills.” The Block: The CCSS call for a focus of instruction on the 2- 4 Critical Areas for each grade. Relying on spending daily classroom time to revisit previously taught skills in order to develop understanding should not be a substitute for in- depth instruction or a focused curriculum.

17. Transition Plan Content, correlations, supplemental activities and lessons will be made available online for current users to adapt lesson plans to implement CCSS. (Same for enVisionMATH CC.) ROLLOVER STRATEGY
