Mathematics education in the District of Columbia Public Schools (果冻传媒) is an engaging, dynamic student-centered learning experience. Guided by teachers’ deep knowledge of the Common Core Content and Practice Standards, students will be motivated and challenged as they develop conceptual understanding, apply understanding to unfamiliar, real world mathematical situations, and fluently manipulate numbers and symbols. Through these engaging experiences, students will develop competency in the . Teachers and students have access to high-quality Common Core-aligned curricular resources, purposeful and actionable data obtained from quality assessments, and targeted professional development designed to support teachers and staff in the implementation of the 果冻传媒 Mathematics Instructional Block. 

果冻传媒 math instruction is designed around the research and best practice in mathematics education, namely in helping students develop the 5 strands of mathematical proficiency. For more information about the 5 strands of proficiency, .  

In K-5, 果冻传媒 utilizes the . For middle and high school, 果冻传媒 uses . For more information on the units of study by grade level, see below.
