Eureka Math2 makes math more powerful than ever before

In 2013, Eureka Math®, previously known as EngageNY Math, transformed math instruction nationwide.  

While other companies might see the success of a curriculum like Eureka Math as a pinnacle, Great Minds® sees it as one moment in a journey to set the standards of education even higher.

Now we're raising it to the second power.

 

 

 

ACCESSIBILITY²

Personalized for every classroom

We’ve put into practice the latest research on supporting multilingual learners, leveraging Universal Design for Learning principles and promoting social-emotional learning, to ensure all students have access to grade-level content. Our instructional design, instructional routines, and lesson-specific strategies help teachers address learner variance. In-context margin notes give teachers guidance to help students with understanding, speaking, and writing English in mathematical contexts.

 

READABILITY²

Access for every learner

We believe that words shouldn’t get in the way of learning math. We've designed Eureka Math2 with active consideration for the perspective of students who need support with reading, especially those with dyslexia. Students of all reading abilities benefit from the curriculum’s consistent use of straightforward and concise language and from the visual supports built into all Eureka Math² student materials. 

TEACHABILITY²

Flexible for every educator

Every classroom is unique, and we’ve designed Eureka Math² to meet the needs of every learning community. Modules and lessons are designed to be flexible, so teachers can spend their time where it’s needed most—delivering instruction that meets the needs of their specific students. With differentiation suggestions, slide decks, digital interactives, multiple forms of assessment, and much more, Eureka Math2 is the most teachable high-quality curriculum available.

New in Eureka Math2

Standards for Mathematical Practice

The Standards for Mathematical Practice are woven into every Eureka Math2 lesson. Through explicit instruction and student-driven tasks, students are consistently applying Mathematical Practices to their daily work to build an enduring understanding of math. 

Achievement Descriptors

Achievement Descriptors (ADs) are standards-aligned descriptions that detail what students should know and be able to do based on the instructions.  ADs are written by using portions of various standards to form a clear, concise description of the work covered in each module. Each Module has its own set of ADs, and the number of ADs varies by module. Taken together, the sets of module-level ADs describe what students should accomplish by the end of the year.

Talking Tool

A scaffold to support students in producing language so they can engage in discourse about mathematics with their peers. The sentence starters and sentence frames guide students on how they can share their thinking, ask classmates about their reasoning, show why they agree or disagree, and check understanding.  Whether in small group activities or whole group discussions, the Talking Tool supports students so every student can confidently engage in productive discourse, helping build math knowledge for all students in the class.

Build Anticipation with Humorous Context

Illustrations from award-winning author Ben Orlin elevate student engagement in every module for grade levels 6–Algebra I*.


New Math Context Videos

Context videos help students see math in the real world, and are accessible to all students, including multilingual learners. 

Representation matters, from the people featured in the curriculum videos to the names that appear in lessons, we've made sure every student can see themselves in Eureka Math2.

EM2_TE

Teach

Every grade level includes 6 modules. The Teach book represents a single module with groups of related lessons organized into topics. Within the Teach, teachers will find an overview of the module, lesson planning notes, and margin notes that provide information on scaffolding, differentiation, and other information to support classroom instruction. The implementation guides provided below share a detailed walk-through of all the components within Teach.


Implementation Guides

PK   K
 

EM2_SE

Learn

The Learn book includes student materials for in-class work. Within the Learn students will find:

  • Lesson Pages that students use during the guided or directed portion of the lesson,
  • Problem Sets for independent practice during the lesson, with problems organized from simple to complex, and
  • Exit Tickets that provide a brief, formative assessment of key learning in the lesson

Eureka-Math-Squared_Apply

Apply

The Apply book helps students deepen their understanding of the concepts they learned in class through practice at home. Apply has three unique components:

  • Family Math is a letter describing the major concepts in the current topic
  • Additional Practice is a collection of problems for students to work on at home which interweave and distribute practice, and
  • Practice Partners takes students through the thinking of a hypothetical partner who is solving problems similar to those found in Additional Practice. 

Apply books are for Levels 1–5. Family Math has been included in the Learn book for Level K.

PREMODULE ASSESSMENT

Digital Diagnostic Assessment

Eureka Math2 Equip™ premodule assessments uncover instructional gaps in essential foundational knowledge and provide supporting content to help all students progress through the major work of the grade.

Premodule assessments use branch logic to create a custom question path for each student.

Assessment reporting provides data for individual students and the class as a whole.

Consolidated lessons draw on content from previous grades to help students close any knowledge gaps.

Pacing guidance helps teachers ensure that students stay on track with grade-level work while accelerating unfinished learning.

MAKING LEARNING VISIBLE

Assessing Student Understanding

Eureka Math2 also includes assessment opportunities throughout the school year, providing teachers with data on student understanding to help inform instruction.

  • Daily Exit Tickets help teachers reflect on student progress shape instruction for the following day accordingly.
  • Module Assessment and Topic Quizzes (available with multiple versions in digital or print form) tie together addressed concepts.
  • Benchmark Assessments provide a summative look at student progress three times during the school year.
