A 5th grade teacher is required to use scripted curricula (Wonders for literacy, Kiddom for math) but struggles to keep students engaged, especially during literacy, and finds the lessons monotonous with no time for fun or breaks.

Existing scripted curricula are rigid and unengaging, providing little flexibility or built-in breaks, which leads to student disengagement and teacher frustration.
