3. Morningside Big 5 Math Targets Tool Skills Computation Math Vocabulary Conversation Solving standard word problems Generic Problem solving
Tool skills • Reading numbers quickly • 1-9 digit numbers • Writing numbers quickly and legibly • 1-9 digit numbers • Copying and taking dictation • Place value • Quickly identifying, explaining, manipulating • Math facts fluency • Number family method • E.g., 5 9 45 = 5x9 = 45, 9x5= 45, 45~9 + 5, 45~5 + 9 • Number sense of number relationships
Computation • Working with number combinations • Addition, subtraction, Multiplication and division • Whole numbers, fractions, decimals, & simple percentage calculations • “Mental” arithmetic • Direct and explicit instruction of algorithms
Solving standard work problems • Typical story problems involving quantities • Between 20 to 70 word lengths • Students learn to • Write an algebraic equation with one unknown • Determine the unknown by manipulating the equation and doing arithmetic • Direct instruction for 10 types of word problems • Fluency building
Select students for intervention • using screening data • Identify Can’t do problems • Conduct math level of assessment. • 3) Set up progress monitoring. • 4) Plan for implementation. • Who will do what and when. How To….
CBM- To identify who • Screen early for struggling students (K-1) • Number Identification • Quantity Discrimination • Missing Number • On going Screening for basic skills (1-6) • Computation • Screen for Solving and Predict end of year test (2-6) • Concepts and Applications Fuchs Manual: http://www.rti4success.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=10&Itemid=56
Concepts and Applications • 18–25 problems • year-long. • Timed • Score: total number of correct blanks
Early Skills • 1. orally identify the number ( 0 thru100). 3. orally identify the missing number 13 • 2. orally identify the • larger number 3 4 __ 6
Why CBM? To identify level for Intervention Common computation errors: 1. Inadequate tool skills and mastery of facts 2. Ineffective strategy (error in steps in procedure) but sound facts 3. Inadequate facts but effective strategies
To assess TOOL Skills Single CBM Tools skills ACCURACY PROBLEM SLOW AND MANY ERRORS FLUENCY PROBLEM SLOW AND FEW ERRORS
Tool Skill Flashcard Intervention 15 Min per Day • Model, Guided Practice, Independent Timed Practice with delayed error correction
MATH FLASHCARD PARTNERS Demonstration Math 1: Flashcards Tear to make 6 flashcards. Write answers on back. Your partner is someone sitting next to you. STEP 1: GET READY Get out flashcards and a regular pencil and a colored pen. Move to math partner seating.
STEP 2: GUIDED PEER PRACTICE for 3 minutes Partner 1 SAYS flashcard ANSWERS . Partner 2 SHOWS FLASHCARDS for 3 seconds. SAY answer if no answer or mistake. Trade jobs when timer rings Do new job for another 3 minutes
Demonstration Math 2 Practice Test STEP 3: GET READY Turn passed out practice paper over. Write name on back. STEP 4: 2 minute TIMED INDEPENDENT PRACTICE At “GO!” turn paper over and write answers. Hold paper in the air when timer rings.
STEP 5: GRADE and CORRECT ERRORS Mark answers right or wrong with colored pen using overhead answer key. Write correct answers to missed problems. Answers on overhead

Pass paper to teacher.
To assess if knows strategies even with inadequate facts Computation Error Analysis Test strategies with “easy” facts to target gaps Fluency: Time 2 to 5 minutes and mark last problem Accuracy: Allow to finish untimed
(other similar probes with decimal, fractions, rounding, place value)
Fuchs Math:17 Scripted Topics • Writing number sentences (story problems) • Place value (0-99) • Addition facts (sums to 18) • Subtraction facts (minuends to 18) • Review of addition and subtraction facts • Place value review • 2-digit addition (no regrouping) • 2-digit subtraction (no regrouping) • Missing addends • Identifying and writing numbers to 99 • Identifying more, less, and equal with objects • Sequencing numbers • Using <, >, and = symbols • Skip counting by 10s, 5s, and 2s • Understanding place value (introduction) • Identifying operations • Place value (0-50)
How to…Computation Class-wide Math Intervention Teacher first reviews steps and write SKILL STEPS on board.
To subtract two numbers that require regrouping need to know: • check ones place (place value) • know top number should be bigger • know how to take a 10 from tens place to ones place • Subtraction facts

Computation Coaches Intervention 15 Min per Day • Teachers encouraged to • Provide applied practice using mastery-level basic tool skills • Have stronger do it first. That person can then show his or her process on paper if needed. • Make sure students tell how to do it and not just give answer. • Scan papers for high error rates • Do 5-min re-teach for those with high-error rates
Measurement Plan • Weekly probe of Intervention skill • Weekly probe of Retention of previously mastered computational skills • Monthly probe to monitor progress toward year-end computational goals
General Findings • Growth rates and trials to criterion varied dramatically across skills • Retention probe was strongest predictor of year-end SAT-9 performance • Mastery level performance on early skills predicted fewer trials to criterion on future related complex skills • Fluency scores higher than “mastery” predicted retention of skill over time (about +20 dc/min) VanDerHeyden, in preparation
Response Cards Guided practice PREP • For each student: a laminate board, a dry erase marker, and paper towel. • Train until all students respond to cues : • “Cards write” write problem and answer • “Cards up” hold card above head towards teacher • “Cards clean” wipe clean
Response Cards Small group guided practice After lecture and skill modeling, give 1 problem at a time. • Say “Cards write!” • Wait sufficient time. • Say “Cards up!” • Scan students’ answers. • All correct praise, say “Clean cards!”, and move on. • Two or three wrong give correct response, instruct the students to check their answers, move on • More than 25% wrong reteach and ask again. • Increase Pace as students learn skill.
Cover - Copy - Compare STEP 1: Give a copy of the answers or another student’s 100% paper. STEP 2: Prompt to do the following 5 steps when working on problems. Look at the solution of the problem. Cover the correct answer. Do the problems on your own paper. Uncover the correct answer. Compare your answer with the correct answer. STEP 3: After 4 problems correct, try 4 problems without procedure. STEP 4: Check work. If incorrect, give help and tell the student to redo the problem 3 times. STEP 5: Have student complete worksheet, grade and chart. Website for cover copy and compare worksheets: http://www.interventioncentral.org/htmdocs/tools/mathprobe/addsing.php
