About This Report
- EdReports reviews are one tool to support curriculum decisions. We do not make recommendations, and our reports are not prescriptive.
- Use this report as part of a comprehensive, teacher-led adoption process that prioritizes local needs and integrates multi-year implementation planning throughout.
- EdReports evaluates materials based on the quality of their design: how well they structure evidence-based teaching and learning to support college and career-readiness. We do not assess their effectiveness in practice.
- Check the top of the page to confirm the review tool version used. Our current tools are version 2.0. Reports based on earlier tools (versions 1.0 or 1.5) offer valuable insights but may not fully align with current instructional priorities.
Report Overview
Summary of Alignment & Usability: Kendall Hunt’s Illustrative Mathematics | Math
Product Notes
Imagine Learning Illustrative Mathematics K-5 Math and Kendall Hunt's Illustrative Mathematics K-5 draw upon the same mathematics content and therefore the scores and evidence for Gateways 1 and 2 are the same in both programs, albeit with differences in navigation. There are differences in usability as Imagine Learning Illustrative Mathematics K-5 Math and Kendall Hunt's Illustrative Mathematics K-5 do not have the same delivery platforms for the instructional materials.
