    The site is run by Common Core, Inc. here is information about them:

    They are the contractors hired by NYSED to develop the EngageNY math modules. The lessons are available on the EngageNY website for free. They have packaged the same lessons as Eureka Math. They are essentially identical—both based on the Common Core standards.

    I have been using the fifth grade math modules and feel that they are the most coherent math lessons I have used. I have been converting the fifth grade lessons to multimedia and share them freely on http://ccss5.com

    Thanks for the clarification. I missed that footnote when looking over the standards. Perusing the Third Grade portion of the U of A Progressions document  does indeed make that very clear.

    That’s a big shift in NY as order of operations has been introduced in fifth grade.

    So, the point of 5.OA.1 is to introduce alternatives to parentheses?
