They love to watch those and participate in them and then along with the career that goes along with it. And I like how that circles back to some of the questions. Then I could remind my students, \"Remember we talked about the carpenter? Here's an example of a“real life situation,\" because I feel like a lot of the time, they don't really understand certain math skills, using them and applying them to daily life. I think that was really useful for them to see how they can apply it in different ways and like I said, in future careers.”  \nGrade 1 Teacher, Lackawanna Trail Elementary Center (PA)  \nIntroduction  \nBased upon the most recent NAEP scores, 61% of fourth-grade students nationwide performed below the proficiency level on the mathematics assessment; 24% identified as having math skills that were below basic. While scores have increased since the pandemic, the current fourth grade scores are still below what was reported in 2019.1  \nTeaching math in elementary education has always been hard for several reasons. Math anxiety among students and teachers is a contributing factor, as are challenges with math content that involve abstract and complex concepts as building blocks for foundational understanding. Shifting classroom practices from teaching procedures to fostering mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills is a difficult task for many elementary generalist teachers, many of whom may lack a solid foundation in mathematics themselves. Now a new study from the National Council of Teacher Quality adds another piece to this understanding through their reporting that only one in eight teacher preparation programs give elementary school teacher candidates enough time to learn the math content they teach.2  \nAgainst this backdrop of continued underperformance by elementary students in math and the real challenges of teaching math in elementary classrooms, an evaluation of the impact of a new more rigorous math curriculum that includes extensive teacher support resources is very timely.  \nBig Ideas Learning contracted Project Tomorrow ®, a national education nonprofit organization, to design and implement a year-long efficacy study to investigate and report on the impact of the Math & YOU curriculum product on student outcomes and teacher effectiveness in K – 5 education settings. This thirdparty report documents the findings from that study conducted during the 2024-25 school year with 2 elementary schools, 25 classroom teachers and 634 students in kindergarten through Grade 5. In addition, we evaluated the student achievement results from an elementary school using a competitive math curriculum, serving as a control group for data analysis. The report is organized into four primary chapters:  \n1 [https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/mathematics/nation/scores/?grade=4](https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/mathematics/nation/scores/?grade=4)  \n2 [https://teacherquality.nctq.org/review/standard/Elementary-Mathematics/2025](https://teacherquality.nctq.org/review/standard/Elementary-Mathematics/2025)  \n© PROJECT TOMORROW 2025  1   \n1.
