What resources are available for any grade level K- 12 that are aligned with the Common Core Mathematics Standards and Mathematical Practices that have sets of problems or problem banks that can be used by teachers for instruction or homework?

$\begingroup$ So you're looking for problem banks with official endorsements? $\endgroup$– Alexander GruberMar 25, 2014 at 22:08

$\begingroup$ Yes, official endorsements would be wonderful or endorsements from educators that have actually used them. Free resources would be best but excellent sources of any kind appreciated. $\endgroup$– Sue ThumaMar 25, 2014 at 22:59

Can we include rich math tasks in our answers? If so, look at:

The CME Project! It's a full four-year high school curriculum.

$\begingroup$ +1. I love CME. For curricular resources focused on developing mathematical habits of mind (though they mostly predated the publication of the Common Core), also see: CPM - cpm.org and Connected Math - connectedmath.msu.edu and IMP - mathimp.org and Math in the City's Contexts for Learning - contextsforlearning.com/seriesOverview.asp $\endgroup$ Apr 20, 2014 at 2:06
David Wees already mentioned in but I'd like to highlight Illustrative Mathematics - it's designed precisely for this purpose. (It's the brainchild of Bill McCallum, one of the lead authors of the Common Core math standards.)
The Khan Academy has been developing a common core map. They have been working with Smarter Balanced and Illustrative Mathematics on the project.
