Teaneck Public Schools’ K–12 Mathematics program is designed to give every student the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in today’s world and tomorrow’s global economy. Our curriculum includes a variety of courses, units, and activities that meet the diverse needs of all learners.

The program focuses on:

• Problem Solving: Building the ability to analyze and solve problems of different types and levels of difficulty.

• Mathematical Understanding: Developing a deep understanding of the structure and nature of mathematics so students can apply it across subjects.

• Reasoning & Collaboration: Encouraging students to explain their thinking, share ideas, and work together to strengthen their reasoning skills.

Through this balanced approach, our goal is for every student to become a confident problem solver, critical thinker, and effective communicator of mathematical ideas.

We are excited to share that Eureka Math² continues to serve as the mathematics curricular resource for grades K–8. This program is carefully designed to build a strong foundation in mathematics while helping students develop confidence, curiosity, and problem-solving skills.

What Makes Eureka Math² Unique?

• Coherent Progression: Concepts are introduced in a logical sequence so that each grade builds directly on what students learned before.

• Deep Conceptual Understanding: Lessons go beyond memorization, encouraging students to truly understand why math works.

• Fluency & Practice: Students build automaticity with basic facts and operations, freeing them to focus on higher-level problem solving.

• Real-World Connections: Math tasks are designed to be relevant and meaningful, helping students see how mathematics applies in everyday life.

• Equity & Access: Eureka Math² offers scaffolds and supports so that all learners can access rigorous mathematics.

Together, we can help every student in Teaneck build the confidence, skills, and reasoning needed to excel in mathematics and beyond.

These eight practices describe the “habits of mind” that mathematically proficient students develop across all grade levels. They represent ways of thinking, reasoning, and approaching problems that go beyond memorizing procedures. The eight (8) standards of practice are: 

• Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them

• Reason abstractly and quantitatively

• Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others

• Model with mathematics

• Use appropriate tools strategically

• Attend to precision

• Look for and make use of structure

• Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning
