Creator of Eureka Math, Wit & Wisdom, and PhD Science curricula and Geodes books for emerging readers.

About us

A group of education leaders founded Great Minds in 2007 to define and encourage knowledge-rich, comprehensive education for all American schoolchildren. In pursuit of that mission, Great Minds brings teachers together with scholars to craft exemplary instructional materials and share them with the field. Great Minds’ Eureka Math curriculum has earned top ratings by independent reviewers for teaching math as a body of knowledge, not just a set of skills. Eureka Math also is known as EngageNY Math. Wit & Wisdom is a rich English language arts curriculum that taps the power of literature, history, and science to build knowledge of intriguing topics while teaching reading comprehension and writing. Aligned to the latest science standards, PhD Science inspires students to wonder about the world and empowers them to make sense of it with hands-on investigation and modeling. Geodes books for early readers inject knowledge about fascinating subjects into beautifully illustrated books, cultivating joyful reading and learning from the outset of education.
