About us
A group of education leaders founded Great Minds in 2007 to define and encourage knowledge-rich, comprehensive education for all American schoolchildren. In pursuit of that mission, Great Minds brings teachers together with scholars to craft exemplary instructional materials and share them with the field. Great Minds’ Eureka Math curriculum has earned top ratings by independent reviewers for teaching math as a body of knowledge, not just a set of skills. Eureka Math also is known as EngageNY Math. Wit & Wisdom is a rich English language arts curriculum that taps the power of literature, history, and science to build knowledge of intriguing topics while teaching reading comprehension and writing. Aligned to the latest science standards, PhD Science inspires students to wonder about the world and empowers them to make sense of it with hands-on investigation and modeling. Geodes books for early readers inject knowledge about fascinating subjects into beautifully illustrated books, cultivating joyful reading and learning from the outset of education.

Great Minds reposted this
Last June, Education Week visited PS 107 to see how our implementation of #StructuredLiteracy was going, including our first year of incorporating #WitandWisdom into our ELA block. The short version? We are seeing significant improvements in our students' writing; use of complex vocabulary, ability to have a lengthy, meaningful conversation about a text; and, as a result, their comprehension of a huge range of texts. We saw the results in our NYS ELA scores — in grades 3 + 4, the two testing grades that implemented Wit + Wisdom — went UP, by several percentage points. Structured Literacy works. It's good for all students. It challenges our strong students. It provides necessary scaffolding for our strugglers. This principal is impressed.

"Let's continually promote the narrative that we can all be math people, from grade school all the way to adulthood." We want to take this opportunity to revisit an inspiring article by Lance Barasch, a high school math teacher at #DallasISD. He advocates for promoting the idea that everyone can be math people from grade school to adulthood. Dive into his insightful perspective here: https://ow.ly/roYG50TCj8H
