Kindergarten Report Overview

The instructional materials for Earlybird Kindergarten Mathematics Common Core Edition do not meet expectations for alignment to the CCSSM. In Gateway 1, the instructional materials meet the expectations for focus as they assess grade-level standards and devote at least 65% of instructional time to the major work of the grade. For coherence, the instructional materials are not coherent and consistent with the Standards. The instructional materials have an amount of content designated for one grade level that is viable for one school year, but the materials partially, or do not, meet expectations for the remainder of the indicators within coherence. In Gateway 2, the instructional materials do not meet the expectations for rigor and balance, and they do not meet the expectations for practice-content connections. Since the materials do not meet the expectations for alignment to the CCSSM, they were not reviewed for usability in Gateway 3.
