Wit & Wisdom® is a comprehensive K–8 English language arts curriculum crafted to help students build the knowledge and skills they need to be successful readers, exceptional writers, and effective communicators.
Knowledge has a multiplier effect—the earlier you begin to build knowledge, the better you do academically in later years. English language arts lessons can integrate knowledge from science, history, geography, and other topics while students develop their reading and writing skills and expand their vocabulary. Wit & Wisdom’s approach to ELA allows students to build both skills and knowledge with every lesson.
Through a rigorous learning design based on Scarborough’s Rope, students gain content knowledge and an awareness of how to read texts, write, speak, and listen.
Students dig deep into each module’s topic, exploring literacy, informational, and fine arts genres to create layers of knowledge that they will build on across lessons.
Wit & Wisdom® students engage with complex, grade-level books, from the classics to newer works of literature. These texts are used at every turn to help students master essential ELA skills.
Fundations® utilizes a structured literacy approach to make learning to read fun while laying the groundwork for lifelong literacy. The program’s research-based approach and extensive materials allow K–3 teachers to confidently present a carefully structured reading, spelling, and handwriting curriculum using engaging, multisensory techniques. Fundations® is aligned with the science of reading and guides teachers to provide effective instructional practices.
Informed by an extensive research base and designed to achieve success with a wide variety of learners, Fundations® is a multi-sensory structured literacy program that presents all skills in a systematic and sequential manner in four Levels: K, 1, 2, and 3. Each Level provides a yearlong curriculum.
Fundations® goes beyond other programs by comprehensively providing instruction on concepts and skills that are key to the acquisition of foundational skills. Foundations teaches the underlying structure of the English language and utilizes an efficient, effective approach that teaches decoding and spelling concurrently.
Eureka Math® is a holistic Prekindergarten through Grade 12 curriculum that carefully sequences mathematical progressions in expertly crafted modules, making math a joy to teach and learn. We provide in-depth professional development, learning materials, and a community of support.
Thoughtfully constructed and designed like a story, Eureka Math is meticulously coherent, with an intense focus on key concepts that layer over time, creating enduring knowledge. Students gain a complete body of math knowledge, not just a discrete set of skills. They use the same models and problem-solving methods from grade to grade, so math concepts stay with them, year after year.
Revolutionary math program designed to ensure that students move beyond rote memorization to build enduring math knowledge through the intentional integration of digital resources and a focused approach to encouraging student discourse.
Eureka Math® helps students establish a foundational understanding of mathematics (the why) rather than only relying on procedural skills (the how), to better prepare them for college and career. Teachers will see students strengthening reasoning and critical-thinking skills that students can apply to solve real-world problems and that can be applied to many
Savaas K-12 Science curriculum is aligned with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and STEM learning. Savvas Science instruction and assessment engage students in real-world, observable science phenomena. Students build scientific knowledge by applying Disciplinary Core Ideas, Science and Engineering Practices, and Cross-Cutting Concepts through inquiry-based learning. Award-winning edtech includes science lessons, hands-on science activities, virtual labs, simulations, and interactive tools to support students as they practice Science in authentic ways.
Savvas science programs are helping teachers prepare a new generation of innovators and problem solvers. Science phenomena investigations align with NGSS standards and performance expectations. Students learn by “doing” science. Authentic case studies and data-driven technology enhance teaching and learning. Classroom strategies and personalized support makes learning science accessible to all students. Experience the science of doing.
It is a K-8 phenomena-based science curriculum immersing students in the inquiry process. This is science elevated for problem solving, critical thinking, and the NGSS performance expectations.
