Supporting English Learners in

Common Core Math

                  

Understanding Language launches a set of new, open source mathematics materials designed for teachers of ELLs. Designed to illustrate how the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in Mathematics can be used for English learner instruction, each lesson in the Supporting English learners in Mathematics package is written for classroom use with English learners. Stanford drew from and adapted tasks from two publicly accessible curriculum projects, Inside Mathematics and Mathematics Assessment Project.  To view the lessons and read the Guidelines for Math Instructional Materials Development click here.
