The Common Core Mathematics Companion, 6-8 should be readily available for every teacher of mathematics. It provides a succinct and organized way to bring the theoretical standards down to practical application for enhanced student achievement. --Betty Brandenburg, Retired Educator


The Common Core Mathematics Companion, 6-8 should be readily available for every teacher of mathematics. It provides a succinct and organized way to bring the theoretical standards down to practical application for enhanced student achievement. -- Betty Brandenburg, Retired Educator The Common Core Mathematics Companion 6-8 offers a practical guide for implementing the CCSS Math Standards. Teachers will appreciate the misconception alerts and ideas for differentiation. -- Jay McTighe, author and consultant The sample lesson-planning section provides a framework that prompts teachers to ask higher-order-thinking questions and ways to differentiate instruction. The sample planning page is also a great resource for administrators to gain an understanding of what mathematics should look and sound like in the classroom. Both the teacher and the administrator can have meaningful conversations about related standards and student learning. -- Teaching Children Mathematics
