New Math this year• I am excited to teach a new math program this year! The

• The program is aligned to Common Core.• This is a unit program that builds mastery within the unit
skills. The skills are assessed by a unit assessment that is administered across the district. EDM was a spiral program where many skills were introduced, but not expected to be mastered until later.
