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: Connected Mathematics Project 3 | Math

Math 6-8

The instructional materials reviewed for Grade 6–8 do not meet the requirements for alignment to the Common Core State Standards. The materials do not consistently devote the majority of class time to the major work for Grade 6. The materials are not always coherent and consistent with the CCSSM. The materials have some assessment items that go beyond the grade level standards in all three grades. Since the instructional materials reviewed for Grade 6–8 do not meet the requirements for alignment to the CCSSM in the areas of focus and coherence, they were not reviewed for rigor and the mathematical practices.
