The B.E.S.T. Transition Guide for Mathematics provides educators with an overview of major changes in mathematical concepts within the courses incorporating the Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.).

Below you can find documents that provide information for the intentional progression of the standards by grade band (K-5, 6-8 and 9-12) and by strand. These are intended to provide mathematics educators with an overview of the standards progression of the B.E.S.T. Standards for Mathematics.

The Common Core and other college- and career-ready (CCR) standards call for a greater focus in mathematics. Rather than racing to cover topics in a mile-wide, inch-deep curriculum, CCR standards require us to significantly narrow and deepen the way time and energy are spent in the math classroom. We focus deeply on the major work of each grade so that students can gain strong foundations: solid conceptual understanding, a high degree of procedural skill and fluency, and the ability to apply the math they know to solve problems inside and outside the math classroom. The following documents illustrate these concepts using the Common Core State Standards, but Focus, Coherence, and Rigor are integral to all college- and career-ready standards.

Students should spend the large majority of their time on the major work of the grade (). Supporting work () and, where appropriate, additional work () can engage students in the major work of the grade. Emphases are given at the cluster level. Refer to the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics for the specific standards that fall within each cluster.

The 2023 Mathematics Standards of Learning were approved by the Virginia Board of Education on August 31, 2023. The 2023 Mathematics Standards of Learning represent "best in class" standards and comprise the mathematics content that teachers in Virginia are expected to teach and students are expected to learn. The 2023 Mathematics Standards of Learning will be fully implemented during the 2024-2025 school year.

The 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning Curriculum Framework, a companion document to the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning, amplifies the standards and further defines the content knowledge, skills, and understandings that are measured by the Standards of Learning assessments. The standards and Curriculum Framework are not intended to encompass the entire curriculum for a given grade level or course. School divisions are encouraged to incorporate the standards and Curriculum Framework into a broader, locally designed curriculum. The Curriculum Framework delineates in greater specificity the minimum content that all teachers should teach and all students should learn. Teachers are encouraged to go beyond the standards as well as to select instructional strategies and assessment methods appropriate for all students.

The content of the mathematics standards is intended to support the following five process goals for students: becoming mathematical problem solvers, communicating mathematically, reasoning mathematically, making mathematical connections, and using mathematical representations to model and interpret practical situations. Practical situations include real-world problems and problems that model real-world situations.

Student-centered learning in i-Ready Classroom Mathematics begins in the earliest grades in which the connections essential for inquiry and growth are created and nurtured. Every student is allowed the time and space to build a strong foundation that will make learning easier for years to come.

This repeated practice, combined with other counting opportunities, helps young students learn the counting sequence, identify number patterns, and develop an understanding of the base-10 number system.

Reinforce session concepts and build fluency with the many options for centers, including plenty of fun digital options. Students apply skills, strategies, and procedures while teachers lead differentiated groups.

A week of Explore, Develop, and Refine sessions is at the heart of i-Ready Classroom Mathematics, providing teachers with a solid, research-based structure. This unmatched teaching strategy gives students the time they need to develop conceptual understanding, build procedural fluency, and apply mathematics to novel situations.

From protocols for engagement and cultural connections to on-the-spot differentiation and inspiring STEM-focused graphic stories, teachers are provided with many options for engaging students and driving individual growth.

This course begins with a unit on reasoning about area and understanding and applying concepts of surface area. Instead of front-loading review and practice from prior grades, these materials incorporate opportunities to practice elementary arithmetic concepts and skills through warm-ups, in the context of instructional tasks, and in practice problems as they are reinforcing the concepts they are learning in the unit. Students will encounter plenty of examples of a mathematical or statistical idea in various contexts before that idea is named and studied as an object in its own right.

From math, literacy, equity, multilingual learners, and SEL, to assessment, school counseling, and education leadership, our books are research-based and authored by experts on topics most relevant to what educators are facing today.

Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Grades K-12 helps teachers implement 14 optimal practices for thinking that create an ideal setting for deep mathematics learning to occur.

In Grade 1, instructional time should focus on four critical areas: (1) developing understanding of addition, subtraction, and strategies for addition and subtraction within 20; (2) developing understanding of whole number relationships and place value, including grouping in tens and ones; (3) developing understanding of linear measurement and measuring lengths as iterating length units; and (4) reasoning about attributes of, and composing and decomposing geometric shapes.

(1) Students will develop strategies for adding and subtracting whole numbers based on their prior work with small numbers. They will use a variety of models, including discrete objects and length-based models (for example, cubes connected to form lengths), to model add-to, take-from, put-together, and take-apart; compare situations to develop meaning for the operations of addition and subtraction; and develop strategies to solve arithmetic problems with these operations. Students will understand connections between counting and addition and subtraction (for example, adding two is the same as counting on two). They will use properties of addition to add whole numbers and to create and use increasingly sophisticated strategies based on these properties (for example, "making tens") to solve addition and subtraction problems within 20. By comparing a variety of solution strategies, children will build their understanding of the relationship between addition and subtraction.

(2) Students will develop, discuss, and use efficient, accurate, and generalizable methods to add within 100 and subtract multiples of 10. They will compare whole numbers (at least to 100) to develop understanding of and solve problems involving their relative sizes. They will think of whole numbers between 10 and 100 in terms of tens and ones (especially recognizing the numbers 11 to 19 as composed of a ten and some ones). Through activities that build number sense, they will understand the order of the counting numbers and their relative magnitudes.

(3) Students will develop an understanding of the meaning and processes of measurement, including underlying concepts such as iterating (the mental activity of building up the length of an object with equal-sized units) and the transitivity principle for indirect measurement.

(4) Students will compose and decompose plane or solid figures (for example, put two triangles together to make a quadrilateral) and build understanding of part-whole relationships, as well as the properties of the original and composite shapes. As they combine shapes, they will recognize them from different perspectives and orientations, describe their geometric attributes, and determine how they are alike and different to develop the background for measurement and for initial understandings of properties such as congruence and symmetry.
