Resources for Families:

This is a free video based online resource that teaches various math concepts in short, student centered
lessons. Most concepts can be searched and watched that will help the student and family understand
math ideas and strategies.The LearnZillion website recommends it being used with students 2nd grade
and up. One thing that I really like about LearnZillion is that it has print out materials that you can use
with students. One thing that I dislike about it is that the website and videos can be a little glitchy when
the computer doesn’t have the proper updates.

This is another free online resource that is full of games and activities for different math standards that
contributes to a better understanding of math from you and your child. There are three different math
categories ranging from kindergarten to 5th grade to choose from: number sense, geometry, and
measurement and data. One thing that I like about this resource is that it provides very clear and succinct
instruction for each activity and game printout. One thing that I dislike about this resource is that it
requires quite a bit of set to print out the games and activities for the students to participate in.

Khan Academy is a free online resource that focuses on interactive videos and practice exercises that help
students learn math content at their own pace. The activities are simple enough for the student to do it on
their own, but also challenging to help gear them towards learning more. This resource is recommended
for students in kindergarten and up. One thing that I like about Khan Academy is how easy it is to
navigate and the wide variety of skills and topics. One thing that I do not like about Khan Academy is
how it limits the student’s ability to collaborate with other people.

Resources for Teachers:

Quizlet is a free app that can be accessed either online or downloaded in the Android or Apple app stores.
Users login by creating an account and have access to create or participate in online study guides.
Students can interact with teacher made study guides, work together to create their own, or work
independently to study for exams or just solidify class content. One thing that I like about Quizlet is its
easy to use platform. Users can easily navigate through the website and apps to create a study guide that
works best for them. One thing that I don’t like about quizlet is the test function. The test function puts
content in the study guide into test form and oftentimes it can be confusing to students.

This visual model allows students to see different strategies or manipulatives they can use to assist them
with adding and subtracting. The visual models can represent addition as combining, extending, or
comparing (greater than). The visual also represents subtraction as the inverse: taking away, cutting, or
comparing (less than). One thing that I like about this visual is that it can be used as a strategy sheet for
students who might forget some strategies to use for addition and subtraction problems. One thing that I
do not like about this visual is that it doesn’t go into depth about how to use each strategy. I think it would
be beneficial to modify the visual in a way that it explained more about each strategy.

This visual model allows students to see an example problem of how to use the standard algorithm to
solve multiplication problems. This example anchor chart can be used for two digit times two digit
multiplication problems. One thing that I like about this visual is that it has the problem and steps right
next to it so the student can clearly see what is happening during each step. One thing that I do not like
that I don’t think could be avoided is the colors. They were done intentionally to match up with each step,
but I find it to be messy and confusing.

Resources for Paraprofessionals

Math Playground is a massive collection of math games that help assist with a wide assortment of math
topics such as geometry, arithmetic, percentages, word problems, graphing, algebra and logic. There are
also opportunities for drill type practice activities and online/physical worksheets that students can work
on. One thing that I like about Math Playground is the extensive variety of games and the content that it
covers, you can find just about anything on this site. One thing that I do not like is the amount of ads that
exist on the site. They can be very distracting for some.

Kahoot! is a free online study guide tool. It uses a series of questions of 2-4 multiple choice answers to
select from. Teachers/students can create their own quizzes, duplicate and edit other quizzes that have
already been created. One thing that I like about Kahoot! is how easy it is to create a quiz and share it
with students. One thing that I do not like about it is how each student participating needs their own
device.

Para-Educator Plan
Setting/Time:
● Para-educators will be working on-on-one with students completing discrete trials using Direct
Instruction with the students.
● 30 minutes per session, twice a week (5:00-5:30)

Materials Needed:
● Strategy checklist
● Reinforcers
● Mastery measures
● White boards
● Manipulatives

Procedures/Instructional Strategies:
1. Introduce checklist (see below)
2. Have students read checklist with you
3. Model using checklist for example problem 34+23 using…
a. Manipulatives
b. Pictures
c. Numbers
4. When writing sum of numbers say for example “We have 7 ones, and 5 tens”
5. Work through example problem 36+61 together using checklist and…
a. Manipulatives
b. Pictures
c. Numbers
6. Give student praise when they correctly work through checklist
a. If a student incorrectly answers the problem or does not use strategy, use error correction
procedure.
i. Say “no stop, my turn” and then model step in checklist with whatever tool they
are using to solve the problem.
7. Provide independent practice by giving progress monitor.

Checklist:
❏ Write sum below ones column
❏ Write sum below tens column
❏ Write sum below hundreds column
❏ Circle total

IEP Goal:
By May 4​th​, 2021: When given 5 two and three digit plus two and three digit addition problems with and
without renaming, student will use an addition strategy where he adds the ones column first, the tens
column second, and the hundreds column third with 5/5 correct or 100% accuracy on two occurrences.

Lesson Goal:
When prompted, student will find the sum of two and three digit plus two three digit addition problems
with and without renaming utilizing a multi digit addition strategy with 100% accuracy on two
occurrences.

Assessment:
1. Say: add these numbers together to find the sum and do your best work. When you are done put
your pencil down.
2. Collect their paper when they are done.
3. Reinforce students for working hard and completing mastery measure.
4. Input use of each step out of 5
