  5. Ready, Set, Review “So, what should we see in an effective mathematics classroom? • A deliberate and carefully planned reliance on ongoing, cumulative review of key skills and concepts • Using cumulative review to keep skills and understandings fresh, reinforce previously taught material, and give students a change to clarify their understandings.”

  6. Long term memory Regular review develops and maintains long-term memory. MEMORY RETENTION MEMORY RETENTION Without regular review or practice, long-term memory is not developed. TIME

  7. OUR PROGRAMSprovide regular review to maintain memory of basic mathematical skills and concepts for Grades 1-10. They are: • comprehensive • systematic • user-friendly • affordable

  31. Response to Intervention • Our programs are used both at Tier 1 to supplement the core instructional mathematics curriculum and Tier 2 with follow-up Skill Builders. • Using the programs ensure that more students are able to meet grade level norms without additional assistance because of the comprehensive, systematic review of essential basic skills and concepts. • The weekly tracking provides frequent progress monitoring, thus identifying which students need additional instruction and review. This review is done with the Skill Builders.

  32. affordable MATH’S MATE - • only $7.00 per student per year. • less than 22¢ per student per week. HEADS UP! - • only $8.00 per student per year. • 5¢ per day.
