Creating a curriculum of differentiated, research-based Algebra materials for classes where some students need significantly more support to succeed. Customizable materials will be refined constantly to meet students' needs. These are not simply lesson plans, or even a new textbook. They are an integrated curriculum of activities, presentations, games, etc. An initial project will be to create alternate units to replace weak spots in the Carnegie Learning Algebra I curriculum, including all the supplementary materials to implement the units for students' success.
