Research
Every Day in Pre-K: Math is based on best classroom practices for teaching mathematics that have been validated by scientific research. These practices include daily whole class discussion and dialogic discourse, the usage of real life data and visual models, continuous exposure to critical mathematical concepts, making connections across mathematical strands, offering students multiple points of entry, cooperative learning, developing number sense and computational fluency, the usage of informal learning and games, differentiating instruction, and ongoing assessment. The topics and challenges at each grade level of the Every Day in Pre-K: Math program are aligned with the NCTM standards and build on what students learn in class with activities that engage students, allowing them to explore, make and test conjectures, and apply their mathematical understanding.
