Why California districts are choosing California IM v.360
California IM v.360 gives districts a coherent curriculum aligned to the California Mathematics Framework, with official IM Certified options that help schools and districts bring IM Math to life in the classroom.
California IM v.360 is aligned with the California Mathematics Framework and the California Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, with California-specific enhancements that help students reason, explain their thinking, and connect mathematical ideas.
IM Math is designed so mathematical ideas build across lessons, units, and grades, helping students experience mathematics as connected rather than fragmented.
In IM classrooms, students learn math by doing math: solving meaningful problems, sharing strategies, and connecting their thinking to important mathematical ideas with teacher guidance.
Each course includes EP&C alignments that connect math to real-world environmental and sustainability topics. Students might explore questions like: How can math model water usage? How can we analyze energy data? How do patterns in climate information help us make decisions?
Big Ideas and Content Connections help teachers see the mathematical throughline of the year and understand where California standards are addressed.
California IM v.360 includes correlations to the California English Language Development Standards, supporting students as they develop mathematical understanding and mathematical language together.
California schools using IM Math saw faster math growth
Students gained the equivalent of three to four additional months of learning per year, with growth more than twice the statewide average.
The strongest gains appeared when IM Math was paired with aligned professional learning and implementation support.
