Charlotte, NC (Tuesday, February 11, 2025) — Discovery Education, the creators of essential K-12 solutions used in classrooms around the world, today announced the availability of a free guide supporting algebra readiness. Entitled Six Strategies to Help Your Students Become Algebra Ready, this resource discusses the six competencies of deeper learning and shares strategies to help educators prepare all learners for an empowering, effective, and meaningful experience with algebra.
Generally considered the gateway to high school graduation, college, and careers, algebra formalizes many concepts and skills that are essential for understanding and using the language of mathematics. The ability to reason algebraically helps students think logically, identify patterns, form conclusions, construct arguments, and solve new and unfamiliar problems.

• The common barriers to learning algebra
• Principles for deeper learning for algebraic understanding
• Principles for deeper learning in the Digital Age, and
• Innovative ways to use deeper learning and technology to support both math educators and students
