These Standards are not intended to be new names for old ways of doing business. They are a call to take the next step. … It is time to recognize that standards are not just promises to our children, but promises we intend to keep. CCSSM, p. 5 EngageNY.org 3

Publishers’ Criteria EngageNY.org 16
The K–8 Publishers’ Criteria • Focus, Coherence, and Rigor in the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics • II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards • III. Appendix: “The Structure is the Standards” EngageNY.org 17
II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards 1. Focus on Major Work: In any single grade, students and teachers using the materials as designed spend the large majority of their time on the major work of each grade. EngageNY.org 18
II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards 2. Focus in Early Grades: Materials do not assess any of the following topics before the grade level indicated. EngageNY.org 19
II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards 3. Focus and Coherence through Supporting Work: Supporting content enhances focus and coherence simultaneously by engaging students in the major work of the grade. 4. Rigor and Balance: Materials and tools reflect the balances in the Standards and help students meet the Standards’ rigorous expectations, by (all of the following, in the case of comprehensive materials; at least one of the following for supplemental or targeted resources): EngageNY.org 20
II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards 4. Rigor and Balance: Materials and tools reflect the balances in the Standards and help students meet the Standards’ rigorous expectations, by (all of the following, in the case of comprehensive materials; at least one of the following for supplemental or targeted resources): a. Developing students’ conceptual understanding of key mathematical concepts, especially where called for in specific content standards or cluster headings. b. Giving attention throughout the year to individual standards that set an expectation of procedural skill and fluency. c. Using the materials as designed to spend sufficient time working with engaging applications, without losing focus on the major work of each grade. EngageNY.org 21
II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards 5. Consistent Progressions: Materials are consistent with the progressions in the Standards, by (all of the following): a. Basing content progressions on the grade-by-grade progressions in the Standards. b. Giving all students extensive work with grade-level problems. c. Relating grade level concepts explicitly to prior knowledge from earlier grades. EngageNY.org 22
II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards 6. Coherent Connections: Materials foster coherence through connections at a single grade, where appropriate and where required by the Standards, by (all of the following): a. Including learning objectives that are visibly shaped by CCSSM cluster headings. b. Including problems and activities that serve to connect two or more clusters in a domain, or two or more domains in a grade, in cases where these connections are natural and important. c. Preserving the focus, coherence, and rigor of the Standards even when targeting specific objectives. EngageNY.org 23
II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards 7. Practice-Content Connections: Materials meaningfully connect content standards and practice standards. 8. Focus and Coherence via Practice Standards: Materials promote focus and coherence by connecting practice standards with content that is emphasized in the Standards. 9. Careful Attention to Each Practice Standard: Materials attend to the full meaning of each practice standard. EngageNY.org 24
II. Criteria for Materials and Tools Aligned to the K–8 Standards 10. Emphasis on Mathematical Reasoning: Materials support the Standards’ emphasis on mathematical reasoning, by (all of the following): a. Prompting students to construct viable arguments and critique the arguments of others concerning key grade-level mathematics that is detailed in the content standards b. Engaging students in problem solving as a form of argument. c. Explicitly attending to the specialized language of mathematics. EngageNY.org 25
