Education.com unveils guided curriculum for math, reading


New lessons and digital offerings for teachers and parents build foundation for early and elementary school success

Education.com, an online education destination for teachers, parents, and homeschoolers looking to help their kids succeed in school, announced a new guided curriculum that changes the way they help their preschool and elementary children develop essential skills.

The new skills-focused curriculum combines 30,000 expert-created resources from the industry’s most comprehensive learning library with step-by-step guided lessons mapped to specific skills, to more easily and effectively strengthen the math, reading, and writing skills that are essential for school success.

At the heart of education, children need to develop foundational math and reading skills to succeed in school. All kids struggle with these core skills at some level, and their parents and teachers equally face fundamental challenges in trying to help them: identifying the most essential math and reading skills, finding various ways to keep a child engaged in learning, and finding an educational solution that connects foundational skills to the learning needs of the individual child. Education.com’s new math and reading platform uniquely helps parents and teachers address these challenges by combining easy to follow step-by-step lessons with a variety of learning formats for a multi-sensory approach aligned to the essential skills kids need to learn.

“With today’s announcement, Education.com gives parents and teachers an easy and smart way to build a strong foundation for early math and reading success,” said Rich Yang, Co-CEO of Education.com. “We now go beyond simply supplying educational materials to educators – we work hand in hand with expert teachers and curriculum designers to guide parents and teachers. By mapping our resources to specific core skills, providing guided lessons that span multiple learning formats, and providing progress reports, we’ve created a powerful new platform that empowers educators to propel kids forward. This marks a new chapter for Education.com – we’ve answered requests from our 10 million users in a big way, and we’re excited to continue getting feedback that will enable us to keep helping them in important new ways.”

New Expert-led Curriculum Identifies and Maps Essential Skills for Success

Education.com has organized an entire curriculum around essential skills across math and ELA from Pre-K through 5th grade. It was created by expert teachers and curriculum designers across the nation and led by an in-house team of experienced graduates and advisors from institutions including Stanford University and UC Berkeley graduate schools of education.

The new curriculum organizes skills in an easy-to-follow sequence. Each skill logically builds on the previous, making it easier than ever for parents and teachers to accurately track how their children are progressing and where they might need support. This organization also makes it very easy to target a specific skill or broader subject overall within Education.com’s massive learning library of resources.

I like the way the site is organized and it’s easy to use, giving me quick access to all the resources I need for my students. I’m also really excited about being able to track progress and create lessons that will work for all of my students, regardless of level.” – Paul Richardson, teacher, Aichi International School
