Promoting Instructional Coherence Through a High-Quality Rubric for Supplemental Math Materials
Many states have established rigorous
review processes to ensure districts
adopt grade-level high-quality core
instructional materials. But districts
are often left to navigate a fragmented
marketplace for supplemental
materials without support.
This brief outlines how states can strengthen instructional coherence in mathematics by developing a high-quality rubric for reviewing supplemental materials. It highlights design criteria that ensure interventions align with core instruction, target the right prerequisite skills, create individualized learning paths, and generate actionable data—helping districts make smarter adoption decisions and support more students in reaching grade-level proficiency.
