Middle school math teachers lack a cohesive, storyline-driven curriculum for a full math unit that connects topics like fractions, decimals, GCF, and LCM into a single engaging narrative, resulting in fragmented learning and lack of student motivation.

Existing curricula treat math topics as isolated units with separate worksheets, failing to show interconnectedness or real-world application, leading to student disengagement and the 'when will I ever use this' question.

Teachers can create or use pre-built storylines that weave standards-aligned math skills into an engaging plot, with adaptive scaffolding for students who fall behind.

Key Features

Drag-and-drop storyline builder with math skill integration
Pre-built unit storylines for grades 6-8 math
Adaptive remediation: auto-unlocks prerequisite practice when a student gets stuck
Real-time analytics: teacher sees which students struggle and where

Target Users: Middle school math teachers (grades 6-8) in public and private schools, especially those seeking to increase student engagement and conceptual understanding.

Revenue Model: School/district subscription: $2,000/year per school for full access; individual teacher plan: $29/month with limited storylines.
