Can district-led elementary mathematics improvement efforts increase student achievement? We describe a mixed methods project studying twelve districts’ implementation of K-5 mathematics materials. In light of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, this study suggest lessons about how the consistent use of coherent instructional materials paired with implementation supports can improve teacher use of materials and student achievement.
