Think Math!
Think Math! is a comprehensive kindergarten through fifth grade curriculum that provides high-quality mathematics for all children. Think Math! does not pit skill against problem solving. Rather, it builds computational fluency through plentiful practice in basic skills as students investigate new ideas and solve meaningful problems. Lessons provide glimpses of ideas to come, letting students build familiarity and develop conceptual understanding as they apply, sharpen, and maintain skills they already have.

* Think Math! is aligned with NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics and features ongoing assessments to measure student understanding and progress.
* EDC offers intensive, capacity-building training to ensure teachers have the knowledge and tools to develop students mathematical thinking and effectively implement Think Math! in the classroom.
