RTI and MTSS - Build a Foundation for All

Moving with Math® evidence-based programs are designed for at-risk and struggling students in Tiers 1, 2 and 3. Programs are proven effective in building foundational knowledge and closing the achievement gap for all students.

Integrated formative assessments by objective matched to state standards develop a detailed road map for differentiated instruction focusing learning to close gaps and raise achievement.

Engaging lessons using the research-based Concrete-Representational- Abstract (CRA) instructional model develop conceptual understanding, skills and confidence students need to progress to grade-level proficiency.

The teachers friendly Learning System integrates assessment, instruction, progress monitoring and communication with families to help teachers implement with fidelity.

Engaging Student Activities Build a Solid Foundation

Hands-on manipulative activities introduce and explore every essential math concept.

Lessons provide explicit instruction with strategies to aid students with diverse needs and different learning styles gain success.

Scaffolded instruction by grade level or strand helps students build understanding of key math concepts.

Manipulative activities develop vocabulary, build language skills and provide problem solving opportunities.

Children’s Literature

Read to Me uses children’s stories to connect math to life, build vocabulary and promote language development. Story based activities provide students original problems to solve, ways to practice mental math and opportunities to develop problem solving skills.

Games

Nothing lights up a child’s face like telling them its time to play a game. Games utilizing a variety of manipulatives give students a fun way to reinforce understanding and learning, build vocabulary and language and relationships
with peers.

Family Math Connections
