What it is

Amplify Math is a brand-new program based on the highly-rated Illustrative Mathematics curriculum IM K–12 Math™️.

It’s designed around the idea that a core math curriculum needs to serve 100 percent of students in accessing grade-level math every day. To that end, Amplify Math delivers:

  • Engaging, discourse-rich math lessons that are easier to teach.
  • Flexible, social problem-solving experiences both online and off.
  • Real-time insights, data, and reporting that inform instruction.

How it works

Amplify Math delivers the instructional power of student-centered learning packaged in a lesson format that is easy and manageable. With easy-to-follow instructional supports, implementing a problem-based program becomes more effective and enjoyable for both you and your students. Paired with our digital experience, math class becomes fun and dynamic, with plenty of opportunities for students to talk through their reasoning, work with their peers, and gain new understandings.

Imagine having more visibility into your students’ mathematical thinking. Now imagine students have access to this same information. With Amplify Math’s collaborative lesson interface and teacher dashboard, students can’t hide. What’s more, they have visibility into the thinking of their peers—exposing them to a wider variety of approaches to solving the same problem.

Engaging student experience

Power-ups provide just-in-time support to help student strengthen pre-requisite skills before engaging in whole-class activities. Power-ups ensure all students have a chance to experience success in the day’s lesson even if they might be several years behind. Not teaching online? They’re available in the Teacher Edition, too.

Ready-to-teach lesson slides

Every lesson of Amplify Math includes ready-to-teach lesson slides complete with step-by-step teaching notes, suggested student and teacher responses, options for differentiating instruction, links to useful resources, and tips for supporting students through common trouble-spots. Teacher can also customize their lesson slides, adding their own flavor, flair, and favorite problems—enabling them to truly make the lesson their own.

Presentation sync and student pacing

Being able to control what slides students see and when gives teachers the ability to control the pace of the lesson to suite the needs of the class. When Presentation Sync is turned on, students can access all the slides in the lesson. When it’s off, it ensures students’ screens follow the teacher’s. Teachers can also set a range of slides, which allows students to work at their own pace within the unlocked slides only.
