Common Core Math

Common core is an updated approach to math instruction that is rapidly becoming implemented into public schools. Common core math is designed to break down concepts, explain the "why” behind those concepts, and provide multiple strategies so students can choose what works best for them. Ultimately, the purpose of common core math is to provide students with a broader understanding of mathematical applications that adhere to national standards set by education professionals.
