Indicator Rating Details

The instructional materials for HMH Into Math Grade 5 meet expectations for the materials being consistent with the progressions in the Standards. In general, the materials identify content from prior and future grade-levels as well as relating grade-level concepts explicitly to prior knowledge from earlier grades. In addition, the instructional materials attend to the full intent of the grade-level standards by giving all students extensive work with grade-level problems.

The introduction for every module in the Teacher Edition includes Mathematical Progressions which lists standards under the areas of Prior Learning, Current Development, and Future Connections, as well as clarifying student learning statements in these categories. For example, at the start of Module 4, Prior Learning is listed as “Interpreted a multiplication equation as a comparison,” “represented verbal statements of multiplicative comparison as a multiplication equations,” and, “solve word problems involving multiplicative comparisons.” (4.OA.1 and 4.OA.2) Future Connections are listed as “will write numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents,” “will identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms,” and “will evaluate algebraic expressions for specific values of their variables using the order of operations.” (6.EE.1, 6.EE.2b, 6.EE.2c) Additional features of the materials further support the progressions of the Standards. These include:

• The beginning of each module includes a diagnostic assessment called Are You Ready? that explicitly identifies prior knowledge needed for the current module.
• Within each lesson, the standard of focus is explicitly connected to work in future and prior grades. For example, Module 14, Lesson 3 identifies 5.NBT.7 as the focus for the lesson. The mathematical progressions, indicated in the Teacher Edition, show this builds upon work done with 4.NBT.4 during Grade 4 in Module 2, Lessons 1-3. This work will continue in Grade 6 with a focus on standard 6.NS.3. during Module 4, Lesson 1.

The materials give all students extensive work with grade-level problems. Students spend 4-8 days within each module and one day per lesson. Each lesson includes a Problem of the Day to activate prior knowledge, a Spark Your Learning portion as an introduction to the day’s learning goals that usually embeds partner or group work to solve a problem. Each lesson includes grade-level work in the Build Your Understanding, Step It Out, and On Your Own Sections.  Additionally, Reteach and Challenge pages are available for each lesson which provide more practice with grade level work.

For example:

• Lesson 15.1, Build Understanding, students find place value patterns when multiplying by powers of 10. Question 1C “In which direction do the digits shift as you multiply by increasing powers of 10?” The On Your Own section has 23 questions that have students practice multiplication of whole numbers and decimals with powers of 10.  For example: Question 12: 843 = 100 x ___. (5.NBT.2)
• Lesson 2.1, Build Understanding, Question 1, students use rectangular arrays, multiplication equations and related division equations to solve “A local theater group is performing a musical. The members arrange 105 chairs in 5 equal rows for the audience. How many chairs are in each row?” (5.NBT.6)
• Lesson 7.2, On Your Own, includes 17 grade level problems for students to practice addition and subtraction of fractions with unlike denominators. For example, Question 10 states “Mr. Braxton’s laptop memory is $$\frac{9}{10}$$ full. After deleting unneeded files, the memory is $$\frac{2}{3}$$ full. Mr. Singh’s laptop memory is $$\frac{9}{10}$$ full. After he deletes some files, the memory is $$\frac{3}{5}$$ full.  What fraction represents the part of the laptop memory that he deleted? Is your answer reasonable? How do you know?” (5.NF.1)
• Lesson 13.4, students expand upon their learning of place value and comparing and ordering numbers  to decimals. (4.NBT.1 and 4.NBT.2) Question 4, students evaluate four percentages written as decimals and order them from least to greatest. (5.NBT.3b)

The materials relate grade-level concepts to prior knowledge from earlier grades. The Teacher Edition clearly identifies the previous grade level work and explains how students will use these skills in upcoming lessons. For example:

• In the Activate Prior Knowledge section at the beginning of each lesson, content is explicitly related to prior knowledge to help students scaffold new concepts.
• Module 7, Are You Ready shows the link to prior learning for Explore Mixed Numbers as Grade 4, Lesson 15.2 (4.NF.3b) in the Data-Driven Intervention Chart. A narrative is provided for each skill on the page. In Explore Mixed Numbers, the items assess whether students are able to find the mixed number equivalent to a given fraction greater than 1. “In the upcoming lessons, students will use this skill when adding and subtracting mixed numbers.”
• Module 14, Lesson 14.3, Assess Reasonableness of Sums and Differences, asks students to build upon their prior learning of understanding “fluently added multi-digit numbers (Grade 4, Lessons 2.1 and 2.3)” and “fluently subtracted multi-digit whole numbers (Grade 4, Lessons 2.2 and 2.3.).” The lesson additionally includes a Make Connections section where it suggests Project the Interactive Reteach, Grade 4, Lesson 2.1. and Complete the Prerequisite Skills Activity where a problem is presented to the students. They are asked to identify the operation used to solve the problem and explain how they decided which operation to use.

### Indicator 1f

• Lesson 3.4, On Your Own, Problem 5,  students solve an application problem. For example, “A local group raised $3,273 during a recent event. The money raised will be shared equally among 3 different charities. How much money will each charity receive? Write an equation to model the situation. Then solve.” (5.NBT.6) Multiple aspects of rigor are engaged simultaneously to develop students’ mathematical understanding of a single topic/unit of study throughout the materials. • In Lesson 10.4, Build Understanding, Problem 1, states "The nature preserve has a 3-mile long trail for birdwatchers. The ranger divides the birdwatcher trail into $$\frac{1}{2}$$-mile sections and names each section after a different bird. How many of these sections does the trail have? A. Complete to describe the situation and model it with an expression. 'The trail is ___ miles long and is divided into ____-mile sections. This can be modeled by the expression ___”. • In Lesson 11.1, More Practice and Homework, Problem 1, students represent the situation for each problem with a visual model. They write a division equation and a related multiplication equation. “Marcos has 4 gallons of gasoline for his lawn mower. How many lawns can he mow if each lawn uses $$\frac{1}{4}$$ gallon of gasoline?” Students engage in application and conceptual understanding as they complete the problem. • In Lesson 11.3, On Your Own, Problem 3 students use application and conceptual understanding to solve “Write and solve a division word problem for the visual model.” The visual model shows five circles partitioned into six pieces each.

The MPs are identified at the unit, module and lesson level. In addition, the information in the Planning and Pacing Guide also include references to the MPs. For example: • Each lesson has a focus Standard for Mathematical Practice (SMP) based on the identified lesson’s learning goal and the tasks that meet the learning goal. These are listed under Lesson Focus and Coherence at the start of each lesson. Additionally, on page 15 of the Planning and Pacing Guide, it outlines for teachers where to look for each of the SMPs. It states, “MP1, MP3, and MP5 are paired with Spark Your Learning tasks. When students connect understanding they have developed with more efficient procedures, MP7 and MP8 are being attended to. This helps students explain and justify their procedures with MP4, MP2 and MP6 are attended to within lessons that ask students to apply procedures in practice.” • All MPs are clearly identified throughout the materials. For example, MP1 is identified in the Spark Your Learning tasks. MP2 is identified in Lesson 10.5, and Lesson 9.2; MP3 in Lesson 11.1 and Lesson 16.2; MP4 in Lesson 12.1 and Lesson 15.2; MP5 in Lesson 11.1 and Lesson 6.1; MP6 in Lesson 10.5 and Lesson 1.3; MP7 in Lesson 9.2 and Lesson 1.1; and MP8 in Lesson 1.3 and Lesson 15.1. • The Planning and Pacing Guide for the teachers has a section identified as Correlations for Mathematical Practices. In this section, the 8 Mathematical Practices are listed in a table with a detailed description (from the common core documents) of the practice as well as “some examples” of where the practice is included in the text series. Each math practice has 11 -14 locations listed of where the teachers can look for specific MPs. • Planning and Pacing Guide pages 17-19 provide additional detail and clarity about each Mathematical Practice. These pages also include Questions to Ask with each Mathematical Practice. These questions provide support to advance students. • The Module Review includes a labeled question “Use Tools” in the Student Edition that asks students to choose a tool and explain their choice. The Teacher Edition recommends and provides additional support to have students discuss and share strategies and tools used as part of their review of the module. • In the Teacher Edition, in the margin under Homework & Test Prep, there is a section that describes MPs that can be seen within the HW worksheet for the students. • The Teacher Edition for the Spark Your Learning section includes an Advancing or Assessing question to have students choose strategies and tools. Additionally, Build Understanding”recommends to teachers to have students share strategies and tools to solve the problem. • Correlations in the Planning and Pacing Guide include lesson examples and to correct over identification. This can be found in the Teacher’s Edition, both on the introductory pages for each lesson and on the lesson pages with Build Understanding and Step It Out Tasks. However, the materials over-identify the Math Practices, with some identified for every lesson. In addition, some MPs are incorrectly identified. For example: • MP1 and MP3 are identified as “in every lesson.” • MP2 is identified “in every Spark Your Learning Lesson and in most lessons”. • MP4, MP5, MP6, MP7, and MP8 are identified “in most lessons”. According to the correlations chart, MP4 (Model with Mathematics) can be found in most lessons. Examples include Lessons 2.1, 3.4, 4.4, etc. • Lesson 8.6 indicates a focus on MP2 and MP3. However, in the planning it states that MP5 and MP6 are the focus. • In Modules 6 through 11, MP1 is not explicitly identified as a part of any lesson. • In the Planning and Pacing Guide it is indicated that Lesson 6.2 addresses MP1. However, in the Lesson Plan in the Teacher Edition it is not indicated. • MP1 is labeled in the correlations chart as in every lesson, but there are no explicit connections in Lessons 1.3, 9.1 or 15.6. • Lesson 2.3 lists MP2 and MP3 in the Teacher Edition, Lesson Focus and Coherence section. Problem 3, in the On Your Own section, is titled Construct Arguments and is identified as such in the Teacher Edition but is not linked to the MP. Problem 2 in the More Practice/Homework page is identified as Construct Arguments. The Teacher Edition shows how this problem attendants to MP3. It states, “For Problem 2, students will judge the reasonableness of a response using two different sets of compatible numbers.” • Multiple problems within a lesson include MP language with no direct connection to MPs. For example, Lesson 5.2, Problem 4, states Attend to Precision prior to listing the question. Lesson 15.5, Problem 12, states Critique Reasoning. These MP phrases are in all modules and are in bold prior to the question or problem being posed. For the most part, when identified, MPs are used to enrich the mathematical content of the lessons. For example: • Lesson 4.2, Problem 1 identifies MP3. It explains students evaluate Rafiq’s reasoning in comparing two expressions and are able to explain whether or not Rafiq made an error. • Lesson 15.1, More Practice/Homework, identifies MP2 in Problem 13, as students extend their reasoning of multiplication patterns with decimals to higher order powers of 10. ### Indicator 2f Materials carefully attend to the full meaning of each practice standard 1/2 + - Indicator Rating Details The instructional materials reviewed HMH Into Math Grade 5 partially meet expectations that the instructional materials carefully attend to the full meaning of each practice standard. The materials do not attend to the full meaning of MP4 and MP5. Students have limited opportunity to engage with MP4 to model with mathematics. Models are often provided for the students. For example: • Lesson 9.4, Step It Out, students write an equation. It states “Toni has a plaque that is $$5\frac{1}{2}$$ inches wide and $$8\frac{1}{2}$$ inches long. Toni hangs her plaque on a wall. How much wall space does the plaque cover?” • In Lesson 7.6, Step it Out, students draw bar models to represent the problem. • In Lesson 9.4, Step it Out, it states “Write and solve an equation to model the problem using fractions greater than 1.” • In Lesson 10.4, On Your Own, students solve whole number by unit fraction division problems and they are prompted to draw visual models to complete and investigate the equations. Examples of MP5 being identified, where students do not choose tools strategically, as the tools are given to students include: • In Lesson 14.1, Build Understanding, students are directed on which tool to use. It states “What base-ten blocks do you use to show 0.36 and 0.15?” • In Lesson 14.4, On Your Own, Problem 6, students are directed on which tool to use. It states,“Use the addition chart to find the price.” • In Lesson 14.3, On Your Own, Problem 5, students are directed on which tool to use. It states“Justify your answer using the number line.” Examples of the instructional materials attending to the full meaning of the MPs include: • MP1: In Lesson 7.1, Spark Your Learning, states “Ms. Fong mixes amounts of water, glue, and laundry detergent together to make slime. Each amount is a fraction of a liter. Use a visual model to estimate the total number of liters of ingredients she mixes together.” Persevere, the Teacher Edition states “If student needs support, guide them by asking: ‘What do you need to find? What about these fractions makes them difficult to add? How could you use fraction strips to estimate the sum?’” • MP2: In Lesson 14.5, Step It Out, Problem 1, students reason abstractly and quantitatively to answer, “Santiago is at the store with his brother. He reads the total for his purchase on the cash register and realizes that he has only$4.73. His brother pays the difference. How much does Santiago’s brother pay? Write an equation to estimate how much Santiago’s brother pays.”

• MP6: In Lesson 20.2, On Your Own, Problem 7, students learn to attend to precision, “Compare the triangles: Name one attribute that three of the triangles have. Name one attribute that one of the triangles has.”
• MP7: In Lesson 1.1, Build Understanding, students look for and make use of structure to solve,  “Complete each column in the table. How does the number of zeros in each number change?” “In the ‘10 times as much’ column? In the ‘1 times as much’ column? In the ‘1/10 of ‘ column?”
• MP8: In Lesson 17.1, On Your Own, Problem 2, students look for repeated reasoning to solve, “The container holds 100 servings of juice. Show a pattern to find the amount of juice in one serving. How many gallons are there in one serving?”

Many of the lesson tasks are designed for students to collaborate, with teacher prompts to promote explaining their reasoning to each other. Independent problems provided throughout the lessons also have teacher guidance to assist teachers in engaging students. Examples include the following:

• The Teacher Edition provides Guided Student Discussion with guiding questions for teachers to create opportunities for students to engage in mathematical discourse. Module 14, “How can you tell that the 4-digit number at the top of the subtraction problem is less than 2,000?” Module 19 “What would have happened if the instruction in step D had the pattern start at 95 instead of 83?”
• Critique, Correct, and Clarify, is a strategy used to assist students in constructing viable arguments. Lesson 1.4, On Your Own, “Have students work out the steps to multiply on their own. Encourage students to describe the error and review explanations with a partner. Students should refine their responses after their discussions with a partner.” Lesson 5.4, On Your Own, Problem 12, “Point out to students that Problem 12 can be solved more than one way. As shown, the volume of the new cube can be multiplied by the number of cubes: $$8 \times (2 \times 3 \times 4)$$. Or the length of each side of the cube can be doubled: $$6 \times 4 \times 8$$. Encourage students to describe different ways of solving the problem with their partners. Students should refine responses after their discussions.”
• In Lesson 2.4, students tell if an estimate is reasonable and explain why. Teacher guidance states, “Problem 3, Construct Arguments shows that students need to determine the reasonableness of a quotient.”
• The Teacher Edition includes Turn and Talk in margin notes to prompt student engagement. Lesson 11.1, Build Understanding, “Have students share their reasoning. For students who are struggling, suggest that they compare the multiplication equation with their visual models.”  The Turn and Talk builds off of earlier discussion questions such as “What numerical information is given in the problem? How can you show the number of pounds of potato salad? How can you show the $$\frac{1}{4}$$-pound servings in your visual model?"

The instructional materials reviewed for HMH Into Math Grade 5 meet expectations for explicitly attending to the specialized language of mathematics. The materials provide explicit instruction on communicating mathematical thinking with words, diagrams, and symbols. The materials use precise and accurate terminology and definitions when describing mathematics and support students in using them. Examples are found throughout the materials.

• At the beginning of each module, Key Academic Vocabulary is highlighted for the teacher.  These sections include both Prior Learning. Review Vocabulary and Current Development and New Vocabulary. Definitions are given for each vocabulary word.
• Within the Student pages, new vocabulary is introduced in highlighted sections called Connect to Vocabulary. Lesson 4.1: “You can model a context mathematically using a numerical expression. A numerical expression is a mathematical phrase that uses only numbers and operation signs”. In Lesson 20.3 it states “There are two accepted definitions of a trapezoid. One definition defines a trapezoid as having exactly one pair of parallel sides. The other definition defines a trapezoid as having at least one pair of parallel sides.”
• In the module planning pages, there is a Linguistic Note on the Language Development page that provides teachers with possible misconceptions relating to academic language. Unit 1: “Many English words have multiple meanings that can interfere with comprehension. For example, flat and long are typically used as adjectives; however, they also name the base-ten blocks used for understanding multi-digit place values.”
• In the lesson planning pages, Sharpen Skills in some lessons include Vocabulary Review activities. Lesson 20.1:  “Objective: Students review types of polygons. Have students work in types of polygons. List the following review terms on the board: triangle, decagon, hexagon, octagon, quadrilateral. Ask students to discuss what attributes all of these figures have in common. Then have students identify the specific characteristics of each. Have students form pairs and each student should draw an example of each figure listed. Students should compare their figures.”
• Guide Student Discussion provides prompts related to understanding vocabulary. Module 6: “Listen for students who correctly use vocabulary as part of their discourse. Students should be familiar with the terms fraction, whole, numerator, denominator, and equal parts. Ask students to explain what they mean if they use those terms. How can you tell how many large triangles will fit in the puzzle? How can you use this fact to write a fraction for each large triangle? How can you use these facts to find the fractional area of each small triangle?”
• Vocabulary is highlighted and italicized within each lesson in the materials.
• There is a vocabulary review at the end of each module. Students do fill-in-the-blank with definitions or examples, create graphic organizers to help make sense of terms, or the teacher is prompted to make an Anchor Chart where students define terms with words and pictures, trying to make connections among concepts.

Indicator Rating Details

The instructional materials for HMH Into Math Grade 5 meet the expectations that there is a clear distinction between problems and exercises in the materials.

Each module presents lessons with a consistent structure. During the instructional sections, which include Build Conceptual Understanding and Connect Concepts and Skills, students have opportunities to learn new content through examples and problems for guided instruction, step-by step procedures, and problem solving.

The materials distinguish between problems and exercises within each lesson. Lessons include Spark Your Learning or Step it Out, Turn and Talk, Build Understanding, Check Understanding, and On Your Own sections. Spark Your Learning Problems activate prior knowledge and introduce new mathematics to students. Build Understanding includes problems that help students build conceptual understanding of the mathematics topic being taught. Step It Out sections help students develop procedural skill and fluency.

Check Understanding and On Your Own sections include exercises that ask students to use the newly learned mathematics in each lesson. Additional Practice and Homework is available in separate student journal, providing more exercises for students to solve.

For example in Lesson 6.4, Spark Your Learning, students experiment with the following problem: “TV show hosts, Ben and Isa, are preparing small pieces of French toast from slices of bread. Ben cuts his slice into two equal sections. Isa cuts her slice into three equal sections. They were supposed to all be cut into the same-size pieces. Draw a visual model to show what Ben and Isa should do to correct the sizes of their sections of French toast.” Students develop their understanding in the Build Understanding and Step It Out where they write common multiples and equivalent fractions with a common denominator. Then in the On Your Own section students use common denominators to practice writing equivalent fractions.

Indicator Rating Details

The instructional materials for HMH Into Math Grade 4 meet the expectations that the design of assignments is intentional.

Overall, lessons are sequenced and scaffolded so students develop understanding of mathematical concepts and skills. The lesson structure provides students with the opportunity to activate prior learning, build procedural skills, and engage with multiple activities that utilize concrete and abstract representations and increase in complexity.

Exercises are given in intentional sequences. In general, lessons are designed to begin with activating prior knowledge and build toward conceptual development and procedural skill. In the Spark Your Learning, students use manipulatives and/or visual models to experiment with mathematics thus developing a concrete or representational understanding. This is followed by a Turn and Talk with a partner allowing students to process the connections they have found. Throughout the lessons, students are provided scaffolding with new content in the Build Understanding and Step It Out sections, where the abstract concept is broken down into smaller steps with additional Turn and Talk opportunities, and provided with independent exercises to build understanding and mastery. The Check Understanding section provides a mid-lesson check in and can be used to indicate the need to differentiate learning for students. Students practice the abstract concept in the On Your Own.

For example, in Lesson 1.2, students begin by using manipulatives or a visual model to solve the following problem: “Aaron’s school has set up a website to raise money for a new playground. Each donation is \$10. For the first 10 days, the school receives 10 donations each day. How much does the school received the first day? How much does the school receive after 10 days? Explain your thinking.” Students then look for patterns in Step it Out first by multiplying 7 x 10 then 7 x 10 x 10 etc. In On Your Own, they progress to the abstract concept of 5 x $$10^3$$.

Concepts are developed throughout the modules such as 5.NBT.2.7 which is introduced in Module 14, Add and Subtract Decimals. Students continue work with decimals in Module 15, Multiply Decimals and Whole Number, Module 16 Multiply Decimals, and Module 17 Divide Decimals.

There is variety in how students are asked to present mathematics. In the Spark your Learning, Build Understanding, and Step It Out sections, students are often asked to use visuals to show their thinking. Turn and Talk questions frequently ask students to construct arguments and give explanations. There are opportunities for students to produce answers and solutions in the On Your Own sections, while also providing opportunities for students to provide written explanations. Throughout the materials, students are asked to represent mathematics using equations.

Homework assignments ask for a variety of responses from fluency to higher-level thinking. For example, Lesson 4.4, Homework has seven problems. One problem is a multi step word problem. One asks students to describe how they would solve {[24 / (6 - 2)] - 4} x 3. Four problems ask students to use parentheses to make an expression equal to a given value and the last problem asks students to critique the reasoning of another students work that is provided.

The instructional materials reviewed for HMH Into Math Grade 5 meet expectations for having manipulatives that are faithful representations of the mathematical objects they represent and, when appropriate, are connected to written methods.

At the beginning of the lesson they indicate what materials/manipulatives will be needed. The lesson on the student pages provide a picture of the manipulative that they will use. For example, in Lesson 4.1, students are asked to model a situation with two color counters “Al drum line is made up of 14 fourth-grade drummers and 12 fifth-grade drummers. The fourth-grade drummers stand in a line, and the firth grade-drummers stand in a line behind them.” Students use two color counters or a visual model to create a representation. The manipulatives provide opportunities for students to develop a conceptual model of problems that they will then represent in pictorial form in their student workbook.

Lesson 6.3, Spark Your Learning, students are encouraged to use a visual representation to show $$\frac{3}{4}$$ and $$\frac{1}{2}$$. They use fractions tiles to make equivalent fractions in order to subtract the fractions. The work with fraction tiles is connected to the written method for making equivalent fractions and subtracting fractions.

Examples of manipulatives for Grade 5 include: base ten blocks, connecting cubes, fraction strips, grid paper, ruler, number line, square tiles, and two color counters

The materials rely heavily on pictures of manipulatives. When physical manipulatives are called for in the lesson materials in the Teacher Edition, it is not always clear how they are to be used. There is sometimes direction for how they can be used in the differentiation section.

All publishers are invited to provide an orientation to the educator-led team that will be reviewing their materials. The review teams also can ask publishers clarifying questions about their programs throughout the review process.

Once a review is complete, publishers have the opportunity to post a 1,500-word response to the educator report and a 1,500-word document that includes any background information or research on the instructional materials.

EdReports requested that publishers fill out The Instructional Materials Technology Information document about each of their products that met our alignment criteria. This document does not evaluate the quality or desirability of any product functionality, but documents features in order to empower local schools and districts with information to select materials that will work best for them given their technological capabilities and instructional vision.

Please note: Beginning in spring 2020, reports developed by EdReports.org will be using an updated version of our review tools. View draft versions of our revised review criteria here.

## Educator-Led Review Teams

Each report found on EdReports.org represents hundreds of hours of work by educator reviewers. Working in teams of 4-5, reviewers use educator-developed review tools, evidence guides, and key documents to thoroughly examine their sets of materials.

After receiving over 25 hours of training on the EdReports.org review tool and process, teams meet weekly over the course of several months to share evidence, come to consensus on scoring, and write the evidence that ultimately is shared on the website.

All team members look at every grade and indicator, ensuring that the entire team considers the program in full. The team lead and calibrator also meet in cross-team PLCs to ensure that the tool is being applied consistently among review teams. Final reports are the result of multiple educators analyzing every page, calibrating all findings, and reaching a unified conclusion.

## Rubric Design

The EdReports.org’s rubric supports a sequential review process through three gateways. These gateways reflect the importance of standards alignment to the fundamental design elements of the materials and considers other attributes of high-quality curriculum as recommended by educators.

• Materials must meet or partially meet expectations for the first set of indicators to move along the process. Gateways 1 and 2 focus on questions of alignment. Are the instructional materials aligned to the standards? Are all standards present and treated with appropriate depth and quality required to support student learning?
• Gateway 3 focuses on the question of usability. Are the instructional materials user-friendly for students and educators? Materials must be well designed to facilitate student learning and enhance a teacher’s ability to differentiate and build knowledge within the classroom. In order to be reviewed and attain a rating for usability (Gateway 3), the instructional materials must first meet expectations for alignment (Gateways 1 and 2).

## Key Terms Used throughout Review Rubric and Reports

• Indicator Specific item that reviewers look for in materials.
• Criterion Combination of all of the individual indicators for a single focus area.
• Gateway Organizing feature of the evaluation rubric that combines criteria and prioritizes order for sequential review.
• Alignment Rating Degree to which materials meet expectations for alignment, including that all standards are present and treated with the appropriate depth to support students in learning the skills and knowledge that they need to be ready for college and career.
• Usability Degree to which materials are consistent with effective practices for use and design, teacher planning and learning, assessment, and differentiated instruction.

## Math K-8 Rubric and Evidence Guides

The K-8 review rubric identifies the criteria and indicators for high quality instructional materials. The rubric supports a sequential review process that reflect the importance of alignment to the standards then consider other high-quality attributes of curriculum as recommended by educators.

For math, our rubrics evaluate materials based on:

• Focus and Coherence

• Rigor and Mathematical Practices

• Instructional Supports and Usability

The K-8 Evidence Guides complement the rubric by elaborating details for each indicator including the purpose of the indicator, information on how to collect evidence, guiding questions and discussion prompts, and scoring criteria.

The EdReports rubric supports a sequential review process through three gateways. These gateways reflect the importance of alignment to college and career ready standards and considers other attributes of high-quality curriculum, such as usability and design, as recommended by educators.

Materials must meet or partially meet expectations for the first set of indicators (gateway 1) to move to the other gateways.

Gateways 1 and 2 focus on questions of alignment to the standards. Are the instructional materials aligned to the standards? Are all standards present and treated with appropriate depth and quality required to support student learning?

Gateway 3 focuses on the question of usability. Are the instructional materials user-friendly for students and educators? Materials must be well designed to facilitate student learning and enhance a teacher’s ability to differentiate and build knowledge within the classroom.

In order to be reviewed and attain a rating for usability (Gateway 3), the instructional materials must first meet expectations for alignment (Gateways 1 and 2).

Alignment and usability ratings are assigned based on how materials score on a series of criteria and indicators with reviewers providing supporting evidence to determine and substantiate each point awarded.

For ELA and math, alignment ratings represent the degree to which materials meet expectations, partially meet expectations, or do not meet expectations for alignment to college- and career-ready standards, including that all standards are present and treated with the appropriate depth to support students in learning the skills and knowledge that they need to be ready for college and career.

For science, alignment ratings represent the degree to which materials meet expectations, partially meet expectations, or do not meet expectations for alignment to the Next Generation Science Standards, including that all standards are present and treated with the appropriate depth to support students in learning the skills and knowledge that they need to be ready for college and career.

For all content areas, usability ratings represent the degree to which materials meet expectations, partially meet expectations, or do not meet expectations for effective practices (as outlined in the evaluation tool) for use and design, teacher planning and learning, assessment, differentiated instruction, and effective technology use.
