This resource will be used by all students, teachers, staff, and families of Buffalo Public Schools for core mathematics instruction. The instructional resource must be culturally responsive and offer online resources for teachers and families. It must reflect the importance of every student’s engagement with the New York State Next Generation Learning Standards and ensure a rigorous and developmentally appropriate approach to learning is achievable as outlined by New York State. Additionally, the instructional resource must include strategies to clearly help children develop procedural skills, conceptual understanding, problem solving strategies, vocabulary, fluency and accurate mathematics content knowledge through unit-based learning. Lastly, the program must be adaptive to meet the needs of all learners, including multilingual, special education, and advanced students.
