Excel Math Texas Teacher Editions—TEKS aligned & STAAR ready
With our new Texas Teacher Editions, Excel Math is now current with the 2014-15 Texas Math TEKS. We do not have a personal financial literacy component, but we have built into the lessons lots of practice with coins, money, making change, etc.)
Our Grades 2 - 6 Texas Teacher Editions include a reproducible Budget Worksheet to help students develop a system for keeping and using financial records and to learn to balance a budget when expenses exceed income.
Within each grade level, we correlate the Excel Math Lessons, Stretches, Activities and Exercises to each Texas standard. You can see correlations by lesson number beginning about page 9 or 10.
