What Teachers Are Saying
“This has made preparing for the lessons much easier and I can focus on teaching the students and not have to make the lessons and activities myself. Allows me to focus on just teaching and catching the misconceptions of students.”
— Nathan
“My students enjoyed a change of pace using this resource. They were engaged and had no trouble following along in the notes and assignments. It did not take long as all to lay out how I wanted to use this resource because it came with lesson plans and the TEKS all broken down, definitely helped in cutting down my planning time.”
— Carly
“I absolutely love Math Beach Solutions. It is more rigorous than the state standardized test so gives students all the skills they need to be successful on both the EOC and in future high school math classes. Allison is extremely helpful and her work is beautiful and well organized!”
— Cristina

Why This Curriculum Exists
Whether I had textbooks or not, I was always spending evenings creating lessons because nothing truly aligned with the standards I needed to teach.
After years of developing resources in my own classroom and studying curriculum design, I became a full-time curriculum writer to create the comprehensive, time-saving materials I wish I had.
Now these standards-aligned solutions are available for you whenever you need them!
