Standard Course of Study & Supporting Resources

Tools 4 NC Teachers

The resources on this website, created by educators from across North Carolina through a grant, are supplemental and are designed as model lessons or tasks to address the NC Standard Course of Study.

North Carolina Collaborative for Mathematics Learning (NC2ML)

The North Carolina Collaborative for Mathematics Learning (NC2ML) aims to support NC math educators in implementing the mathematics content standards in ways that align with research on students’ mathematical thinking, mathematics teaching, and teacher learning. To do so, NC2ML brought together mathematics educators to co-design research-based resources and professional learning opportunities.

Canvas Professional Development Modules for NC Math 1-3

The self-paced professional learning modules developed in the Canvas LMS are accessible to all NC educators that teach NC Math 1-3. The modules incorporate the resources developed by the North Carolina Collaborative for Mathematics Learning into a professional learning experience to help NC educators understand the HS standards for Math 1-3.
