Targeted Math Intervention for Texas Students

Vmath Texas Edition is a targeted, systematic intervention system for students in grades 2-8 that builds upon and reinforces the skills and strategies of any core math program, fully preparing students for success on TAKS.

Vmath Texas Edition combats "math innumeracy" by teaching essential math content, focusing on only one major objective per lesson to ensure mastery.

Explicit, Systematic, Scaffolded Instruction
Detailed lesson support makes teaching easier and reduces teacher preparation time. Scaffolded support through sample dialogue enables teachers to help students gain independence. Careful questioning strategies ensure mastery of concepts and skills.

Vocabulary Development
Emphasis on learning the language of math enables ELL and struggling students to become more successful.

Opportunities to Communicate Mathematically
Students are encouraged to communicate both verbally and in writing. Open-ended response questions require students to justify their thinking and analyze answers for reasonableness.

  

Daily Lessons
Teach Systematically

Each 30-40 minute daily lesson is organized logically into four parts: skills review, guided practice, independent practice, and test prep with error analysis.

The teacher reviews prerequisite skills and carefully models the new concept, skill, or strategy as students work in their workbooks.

The teacher uses effective prompts and questions to scaffold instruction and ensure proper student responses. The lesson guides teachers in the gradual and purposeful removal of the scaffolds.

Students independently practice lesson content and previously learned skills and keep a personal graph of progress in their workbooks.

The Test Prep and Error Analysis section of each lesson provides the teacher with a daily opportunity to analyze the errors made by each student, determine the exact cause of the error, and apply appropriate correction techniques to remediate and eliminate the error. Using this section of the lesson, teachers are able to diagnosis errors and apply prescriptive solutions.

Additional Daily Lesson Features
Correction Procedures Guarantee Mastery. Correction Procedures, diagnostic and prescriptive tools customized for each lesson, help teachers identify and analyze student mistakes and intervene with immediate corrective feedback.
Reinforcement Activities Reach All Types of Learners. Math games actively engage students while reinforcing important math skills. Math activities use hands-on and physical ways to bring math concepts to life.
Gizmos
The award-winning ExploreLearning Gizmos in Vmath help struggling students make connections in math.
Gizmos are online, interactive simulations that help students visualize the targeted concepts as they explore and expand their learning.
Gizmos are:
  • Engaging and easy to use
  • Flexible to support many different learning styles
  • Accessible anytime, anywhere

The Vmath program was so easy to implement for the pullout program at my school. The materials were self-contained and ready to go. I loved the pre- and post-tests because they enabled me to see what the children knew or didn't know. I look forward to next year when I'll have the program the whole year instead of just one semester.
