The text offers a curriculum guide for mathematics teachers that focuses on the overarching pedagogy of teaching math. The text argues that Common Core offers social justice, leadership opportunities, and a guide for systemic thoughts and actions. The text then offers three conditions that must be met in order to reach the authors’ goals of successful math education: shifts in belief and mindset, vision, and designated leaders. Included are ten recommendations for how these conditions may be met such as professional learning, collaboration, and community. There is an appendix discussing what a Common Core classroom should look like, as well as a case study. The text concludes with an appendix listing useful tools.
