Union School District adopted Eureka Math²® last year. In Eureka Math² you’ll still find the consistent math models, rigor to support the productive struggle, and coherence across grades that you love from Eureka Math®. Now you’ll also find digital interactives, increased opportunities for student discourse, and a new level of flexibility to make math instruction exponentially more engaging for students.
The Learn book includes lesson work, Problem Sets, and Exit Tickets.
The Apply book (Homework book) gives students more practice at home with the concepts learned in class and includes guidance for families to support their student’s learning. Family Math is a letter in the Apply book that describes the major concepts in a topic. Practice Partners takes students through the thinking of a hypothetical partner solving problems similar to those found in the Problem Set in class.
Great Minds Digital is where you'll find the digital components of Eureka Math2 including presentation slides, the powerful Eureka Math2 Equip assessment tool, and other exciting online features that spark student discourse as well as those special aha moments that keep learners engaged and excited about math.
