Excel Math Texas Teacher Editions—TEKS aligned, STAAR ready

Excel Math Grade 1 Texas Teacher Edition
With our new Texas Teacher Editions, Excel Math is now current with the new 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, calculating interest, budgeting, 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.

Take a look at the new Texas grade level correlations and sample lessons for Kindergarten through Grade 6.

Click on the colorful sample bars on the web page to choose your grade level(s). Scroll down the web page to see the correlations and click on the round buttons: http://excelmath.com/downloads/state_stdsTX.html

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 at the end of each correlation document.

Our vice-president Bob would be glad to provide you and your colleagues with a couple of hours of inservice training with Excel Math (at minimal cost to cover travel expenses), once you start using the program. One of his seminars specifically addresses best practices for Teaching to the new TEKS using Excel Math.

Additionally the in-service includes how to effectively blend Excel Math with an adopted core curriculum for maximum instruction. Feel free to call Bob, visit him in the booth or send him an email: bob@excelmath.com.
