Curriculum Sync & Assistments

Math, aligned. Planning, lightened.

The problem

After remote learning, math teachers told us planning had become unsustainable — building aligned lessons, assignments, and assessments from scratch every week was crushing the high-impact practices that make Ednovate classrooms equitable.

The goal

Streamline planning and improve real-time visibility into student progress so teachers can teach, not assemble.

Ideal for

Math teachers who want consistent, rigorous materials and aligned assessments — without deconstructing curriculum themselves.

Approach

How they piloted it.

  1. 01

    Align Illustrative Math (IM) curriculum across the network

  2. 02

    Integrate seamlessly with Canvas

  3. 03

    Layer in Assistments for formative data that actually moves instruction

Human-centered

AI that sustains, not supplants.

What this pilot is — and isn't

This stack is not a replacement for math teachers — it's how we make room for them. By handing back the hours lost to assembling materials from scratch, CurriculumSync and Assistments free our teachers to do what only they can do: notice a struggling student, redesign a lesson on the fly, and innovate for the kids in front of them.

The team

Educators on the ground.

    Math Teacher

    I am a 12th grade Math teacher that has taught for 5 years and is just starting his tenure at Ednovate. As a mathematician, it is important to me to not just practice mathematics, but push for discovery and innovation. After all, the sum of all our successes is defined by our attempts and failures.

    11th Grade Math Lead, Algebra 2

    I joined the Innovation team because I'm convinced that emerging technology is the key to elevating the student experience. As the world evolves, our classrooms must transform into labs where students don't just observe change, but actively learn to master it.
