Overview

Overview

Amplify Desmos Math combines mathematics curricula with interactive digital activities and teacher resources. Students investigate problems, use representations, explain reasoning, and practice skills while teachers review student responses and guide discussion. Grade coverage and materials depend on the adopted program.

Interactive responses and classroom discussion reveal different parts of mathematical thinking. Teaching teams connect digital activity with the adopted lesson sequence and evidence gathered beyond the platform. The adopted edition and implementation determine the available digital records. Curriculum teams and teachers coordinate materials, access, and the interpretation of locally assessed work.

How it supports learning

  • Teachers facilitate problem-based lessons and use interactive digital environments, student thinking, practice, and assessment to guide discussion and differentiation.
  • Teachers should connect use to explicit learning goals and inspect student work rather than rely on completion or engagement alone.

Implementation and instructional decisions

  • Elementary and secondary offerings differ in materials, scope, and implementation.
  • Districts should confirm accessibility, language support, student-data practices, assignment workflow, reporting, and the continuing role of teacher judgment.

Amplify Math is a K-12 core math curriculum. It is based on the highly-rated Illustrative Mathematics curriculum IM K–12 Math™️, designed around the idea that a core math curriculum needs to serve 100 percent of students in accessing grade-level math every day. Teachers receive easy-to-follow instructional supports which results in a more enjoyable and effective problem-based program more effective which is more enjoyable for the teacher as well as their students.  This also streamlines the facilitation of productive discourse that’s more engaging and easier to access for all students. 
They provide a digital experience that not only social and collaborative, but also fun and dynamic. Students get to work and talk through their reasonings with one another and their teacher, bringing them to new and deeper understandings.
Amplify Math has partnered with Desmos to provide a complete library of Amps—social, collaborative lessons powered by Desmos technology.
“Why do I need to know this? When am I ever going to use this in the real world?” 

These are questions every student has when engaging with new math curriculum and concepts. Amplify Math infuses math instruction with history and storytelling. This allows them to make connections through story telling and a way for them to connect math to themselves and the world around them. The more relevance they can observe in the math they are learning, the deeper the integration of those concepts and lessons. Historical and current narratives help drive this home.

Amplify Math’ provides real-time insights, data, and reporting that drive performance for all learners by allowing you to support every student in the class room, whether they are behind in a lesson or a few years below the class math level. You will be able to see where your students are, what they think, what they might not get yet, and what needs to happen next, giving every student a chance to be successful in math.
