## The Three Pillars of CPM

CPM's pedagogy is built on three research-based practices: Collaborative Learning (students work in teams of 2–4), Problem-Based Learning (concepts built through sequenced problems rather than direct instruction), and Mixed, Spaced Practice (concepts revisited throughout the year for long-term retention).

## Curriculum Programs

- **Core Connections (CC1, CC2, CC3)** — Middle school courses for grades 6, 7, and 8. CPM's flagship program, available in English and Spanish, digital and print.
- **Core Connections Integrated (CCI, CCII, CCIII)** — Integrated high school pathway covering Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2 content.
- **Core Connections Algebra, Geometry, Algebra 2** — Traditional high school pathway.
- **Precalculus, Calculus, Statistics** — Advanced high school courses.
- **Inspirations & Ideas** — Supplementary resources for elementary math instruction.

CPM curriculum is available in both English and Spanish, making it one of the few research-based math programs with full Spanish-language support.

## Professional Learning

CPM provides extensive professional learning for teachers implementing its curriculum, including multi-year institutes, the Teacher Researcher Corps (TRC), and the Academy of Best Practices (ABP). Programs are cohort-based and emphasize peer collaboration, coaching, and classroom-grounded practice.
