  5. Key Findings Glencoe Math In Focus Holt Course Key concepts tightly align to Common Core as well as Math in Focus Differentiated Resources More training needed to increase fidelity of implementation More time needed to build students’ prerequisite skills 6-8 teachers in district-to-district observation and articulation heavily relied on supplemental resources for skill mastery Not as tightly aligned to Math in Focus Strategies
