Developing Roots is an innovative curriculum that uses child-centered experiences to teach math at the Kindergarten level.  A solid math foundation for future work and skill development occurs as curiosity is ignited and a love of math developed. Lesson designs include tasks that deliver high impact results through active exploration, collaboration, problem-solving, and reflection.

Current research in learning and teaching establishes the foundations for the instructional components.  NCTM’s guidelines provide the guiding math principals and essential elements of each of the content areas: Number, Measurement, Geometry, and Operations. Lessons are aligned with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics and place emphasis on developing the Mathematical Practices.
