California educators

CPM’s newest middle school curricula are now available for California adoption.

CPM's newest middle school programs are built for the California Mathematics Framework, not retrofitted to it, with professional learning included in every adoption.

Thoughtful technology

Everything your classroom needs, built in

From eBooks to assessments to seamless LMS integration, CPM’s digital tools are designed to work together, so teachers can spend less time managing tech and more time teaching.

eWorkspace

Students submit work directly from their eBook for individualized teacher feedback. A built-in dashboard makes scalable feedback effortless.

Assessments

Extensive assessment bank for all Core Connections courses. Use pre-made tests or create custom formative and summative assessments.

eTools

Interactive, CPM-built virtual manipulatives such as algebra tiles and integer tiles, embedded directly in lessons so students can explore concepts hands-on.

Homework Help

Step-by-step online support for homework problems, helping students and families work through tricky moments at home.

Why teachers choose CPM

More students taking more math courses.

CPM requires students to be actively involved in learning. They do not just sit and take notes while the teacher does the problems. Now that I have used CPM for four years, we see more students taking more math courses at the high school level.

Bruce

Math Teacher, Wisconsin

The very best thing I have ever done in my classroom.

To hear things like “I finally understand something in math!” and “Why haven’t we been using this all along?” convinces me that my students are engaged and being successful.

Shelly

Math Teacher, Oregon

CPM gave me permission to let go of the way I was taught.

As a 31-year veteran educator, I am now the facilitator of discussion while still guiding the students toward mathematical proficiency and knowledge; asking the ‘right’ questions of my students is key. CPM gave me permission to let go of the way I was taught and give my students the opportunity to have productive struggles while striving for success.

We’re better aligned as a whole math team.

We are better aligned as a WHOLE math team versus as individual math teachers. We now see the data trends in retention of prior skills from our students. This is not to say we do NOT have to “reteach” or review prior knowledge, BUT upper grade level teachers are now spending LESS time in class reviewing and MORE time moving on.

Coaching that works, even after 21 years.

Amidst the busyness of our year and weekly schedule, I can honestly say that I benefited so much from our coaching sessions. After 21 years of teaching, I still learned so much from working with you as my coach. You put me at ease right from the start of the year and now I feel that I could reach out to you wherever I end up job wise to ask for your perspective or help.
