From the Field… • “I like Mathlanding because I know it’s been vetted. When I look at the site, it has all the things about Common Core and now it’s all in one place” • Math Specialist, Florida
From the Field….. “When I began working on the 4th grade curriculum earlier this year, Mathlanding was one of the first places I went.” -Instructional Facilitator of Elementary Curricular Programs, Maryland
From the Field… • “The more I investigate it, the more I like it. The Classroom Collections piece is incredible. I am blown away by the things I’m finding. And having all the resources grouped together is wonderful.” • Elementary Math Program Leader, Connecticut
From the Field… • “We are forming grade level groups and will pull from Mathlanding to help with the Common Core Standards. Using the Professional Development Collections we can make banks of resources for each level.” • Math Coach, Arizona
From the Field… • “I really appreciate the Mathlanding resource. It is so needed! I have shared it with my colleagues.” • District Staff Developer, New York

Math Core Project Overview • Over 400 new middle school math resources • Aligned to Common Core State Standards • Culturally responsive perspectives and learning styles • Bringing together archival material, new production, and partnering organization • Classroom-ready teaching activities
Common Core State Standards The middle school standards are robust and provide a coherent and rich preparation for high school mathematics. Rigorous definition of college & career readinessby helping students develop a depth of understanding and ability to apply mathematics to novel situations Emphasize mathematical modeling through the use of mathematics and statistics to analyze empirical situations, understand them better, and improve decision making Practice applying mathematical ways of thinking to real world issues and challenges
8 Guiding Math Practices • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • Reason abstractly and quantitatively. • Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • Model with mathematics. • Use appropriate tools strategically. • Attend to precision. • Look for and make use of structure. • Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
