ALL YEAR LONG
MATHS
Plurality of mathematics
• Address Math Phobia
• Encourage “Can Do”
May be challenged by algebra
but very good at geometry
(still math).

“I don’t really like this way of
doing math because in grade 5,
if I didn’t like a unit we were
doing, it would eventually be
over. This way we have to do it
all year long.”
-Grade 6 student
STRUCTURE
• Similar outcomes are grouped into limited
categories to create condensed objectives.
• Incrementally progress each outcome over the year.
A Maths Tests every two weeks
Every test covers every concept.
For example:
question 1 is always on place value,
question 5 is always order of operations
Test results are graphed by students.
Correct answers are shaded in.
Half correct are shaded triangles.
• Columns show how a student did on a particular test.
• Rows show how students are doing on particular
concept over time. • Diagnostic
• Improvement
• Needs
• Strengths
“Wuts my mark?”
“What is my concluding
thought before I abandon
this assessment?”

CLASSROOM STRUCTURE FOR MATH
LESSONS IN 6S
1. Flipped Math Video (completed at home by students)
-Each two week instructional period = 6 lessons to be
completed Monday-Thursday of week one and
Mon-Tues of week two, with Mountain Math due on
Wednesday and test on Thursday
2. Whole class review of questions from video (answer
questions)
3. Two rounds of centers (app 23 minutes each, depending on
day)

CENTERS
1. Always Mountain Math (students visit 4 times –
enough to complete in class)
2. Always a worksheet – half mental math, half often
from the JUMP program
3. Usually a website (often Prodigy)
4. Other activities related to the lessons for that test
