The California Mathematics Framework

Bringing the California Framework to Life

 

Where the California Math Standards focused on what students should know, the Mathematics Framework for California Public Schools was established because the “how and the why” of math learning are as important as what students are learning.

The Mathematics Framework provides a structured approach to teaching and learning math, ensuring coherence across grade levels. Rooted in student-centered learning, it fosters critical thinking and problem-solving through real-world applications. By emphasizing equitable access, the Mathematics Framework aims to support all students, particularly those from historically underserved communities.

The Mathematics Framework sets the stage for students to build a conceptual understanding of math and see how interconnected the core concepts of math are—across a single grade level and across the entirety of their math learning journey.  

Eureka Math2 California was crafted to help California teachers meet this moment, empowering educators with lessons and tools that help students become confident doers of math.

 

Big Ideas

Eureka Math² California presents math as a coherent story, from TK to Algebra I, so students can leverage connections between the big ideas at each level and build conceptual understanding.

Equity and Engagement

Eureka Math² California is focused on honoring all individuals as valuable contributors to the math classroom, helping shape students’ sense of themselves as capable learners.

Data Science

There's an increasing importance for all students to be able to work with and derive meaning from data. That's why we've created lessons using real data sets that will help students learn to interpret data and extract meaning to address real-world problems.

Multilingual Learner Support

Our research-based approach ensures all students have an opportunity to engage with grade-level content. Through Language Supports, Mathematical Language Routines, and a special focus on Readability, students have the scaffolds they need to meet every lesson's language objectives.

Universal Design for Learning (UDL)

By incorporating the UDL principles, we provide all students with an opportunity to succeed by proactively removing learning barriers. Lessons provide multiple means of engagement, representation, and action and expression. Options that address learner variability are built into the lesson design.

Research-Based Approach

We know how important it is to help students build a conceptual understanding of math. That's why we've crafted a program, just for California students, that aligns to the new Mathematics Framework so students and teachers can unlock the why behind the math.

Eureka Math2 California is a revolutionary math program designed to advance equity by empowering students and teachers to build enduring mathematical knowledge. All students deserve access to a high-quality math curriculum, and all teachers deserve the support and resources needed to teach with confidence.

Curriculum Designed for the Dynamic Middle


Eureka Math² California
 is designed to sit in the Dynamic Middle of three key aspects of rigorconceptual understanding, procedural fluency, and application.

This unique approach balances the focus on these key aspects across modules and grade levels, with individual lessons designed to emphasize each key aspect differently.



A Strategic Blend of Instructional Approaches


We believe in empowering teachers to ensure rich student engagement and discourse. To facilitate that, we integrate a strategic blend of instructional approaches.

Student Centered - White

Student Centered

Students actively communicate their thinking and reasoning as they gain the confidence to think like mathematicians and see themselves as fully capable learners.

Cognitively Guided

Cognitively Guided

Students draw on existing knowledge to grow their conceptual understanding through discovery opportunities, videos, instructional routines, rigorous open-middle and open-ended tasks, and more.

Explicit and Systematic

Explicit & Systematic

Concepts are sequenced in a coherent way so students consistently build knowledge and skills while engaging in guided experiences, instructional routines, and distributed and interleaved practice.

Eureka Math² California Edition presents mathematics learning as a coherent story, leveraging connections between concepts and big ideas to support deep conceptual understanding. Although each module is centered around its own big idea, lessons give students many opportunities to make connections to the content of other modules and content areas. 

Every lesson in Eureka Math² California Edition contains a language objective and research-based supports to help all students, including multilingual learners, engage with the curriculum’s language rich, discourse-based lessons.

The 2024 California Mathematics Framework calls for greater emphasis on data science. Lessons help students build a conceptual understanding of data and statistics. Educators who use Eureka Math² California Edition also have access to supplemental data science materials that help students make sense of data in real-world contexts and use data to make decisions.

The core curriculum and supplemental materials are created with California’s Environmental Principles and Concepts in mind. Core lessons and other instructional resources embed content that brings this part of the Framework to life.

Eureka Math² California Edition is focused on honoring all individuals as valuable contributors to the math classroom, helping shape students’ sense of themselves as capable learners.
