What’s Desmos Math
6–A1?
Available in English and Spanish!
TEKS-aligned lessons that help students express their brilliance every day
Every student is brilliant, but not every student feels brilliant in math class. We designed our program to put students’ ideas at its center. Our lessons pose problems that invite a variety of approaches, and our technology helps teachers celebrate and develop all of that interesting thinking in their classrooms.
A blend of paper and technology meets the needs of Texas classrooms
Leveraging our expertise in technology, pedagogy, and design, we based Desmos Math 6–A1 on the top-rated programs from Illustrative Mathematics® and Open Up Resources to create dynamic and interactive digital learning experiences, offered alongside flexible and creative print activities.
Powerful facilitation tools for teachers
Our student-centered lessons empower students to explore new ideas, and our teacher dashboard helps teachers bridge those ideas together. Whether teachers are observing student learning on our lesson summary page or guiding productive discussions with our conversation toolkit, our facilitation tools make teaching more effective and more fun.
Built-in resources support Texas teachers and students
Desmos Math 6–A1 provides powerful resources teachers need to prepare their students for STAAR and beyond. Better yet, students are provided with an opportunity to practice with the same tools they’ll use on the STAAR exam!
TEKS objectives are identified for each lesson at point of use
Both ‘Addressing’ and ‘Building Towards’ TEKS are identified making it easy for teachers to see exactly what students are learning and what is ahead.
