Amplify Desmos Math is a core math curriculum for kindergarten through grade 6. We believe that a structured approach to problem-based learning builds on students’ curiosity to develop lasting grade-level understanding.

The Amplify Desmos Math curriculum uses student-centered instruction. In every lesson, students solve engaging and relevant problems, think critically, work collaboratively, and actively participate in their own learning.
