Foundations is an elementary math curriculum based on the instructional practices of the world’s best math classrooms. Our team of mathematicians, curriculum experts, and master teachers developed a comprehensive blended learning program designed to increase your students' understanding and enthusiasm for mathematics. For more specifics on the curriculum, visit our list of objectives here.

Schools receive several support options with Foundations, available in a variety of formats and customizable packages. These include trainings; professional development workshops; facilitated teacher collaboration sessions; guided instructional planning and data analysis; in-classroom observation, coaching, and modeling by Reasoning Mind program experts, and more. No matter your math needs, our support team is there to help your students succeed.

With Foundations, data-driven instruction becomes a reality. You'll have access to customizable reports, interactive dashboards, and hundreds of progress metrics. By leveraging available data, you can individualize instruction for each student—identifying areas for intervention as well as enrichment. Administrators, too, can easily monitor student progress across a grade level, campus, or district.

Students using the Reasoning Mind Foundations elementary math curriculum have been shown to outperform their peers on a variety of assessments and performance measures. You can read more about our effectiveness by visiting our results section, which includes several independent evaluations, case studies, and published articles. When implemented well, Foundations improves students’ performance, engagement, and interest in math.

The same material that seems difficult to your struggling students might seem easy to your most advanced students. Foundations analyzes students’ performance in real-time and adjusts problem difficulty levels accordingly. The program also diagnoses student weaknesses, alerting the teacher and automatically moving students to prerequisite material before allowing them to move on. With Foundations, your students’ math experience is personalized to meet them where they are, and to push them to the next level.

In 2013, a study by the Baker Lab at Columbia University’s Teachers College found that Foundations was highly engaging for participating students. The study reported average time on task of 89% for Foundations students—substantially higher than studies of conventional classrooms and other blended learning programs. Foundations’ interactive interface, self-paced learning, animated characters, and built-in incentives will result in an immersive math experience for your students.
