Math-U-See Curriculum

The Math-U-See Curriculum helps students learn math concepts and succeed at their own pace. This unique math curriculum integrates a distinctive set of manipulatives with strategies presented through lesson-by-lesson videos, textbooks, and digital resources.

The curriculum consists of 13 levels, building from an introduction to mathematics through calculus. Each level uses interactive strategies to increase student engagement.

Our Mastery Approach

The Math-U-See Curriculum creates an individualized learning experience.

Focuses on mastering fundamental concepts and skills before moving on to a new topic
Allows students to learn at their own pace
Includes resources to meet individual learning needs, from supplemental practice to enrichment activities

Teaching with the Math-U-See Curriculum

Our Four-Step Approach

Step 1: Preparation

Expand

Step 2: Presenting

Expand

Step 1: Preparation

Prepare for the Lesson

Instructors should review lesson materials through the following steps:

  • Look over the materials in the Instruction Manual
  • Watch the lesson videos
  • Become familiar with the lesson worksheets in the Student Workbook

Depending on the lesson, you may find additional examples, teaching tips, or suggestions for related activities. Once you are familiar with the program, the preparation—including the video—will normally take only a few minutes every week.

Step 2: Presenting

Present and Explore the New Concept

Work together with your student, using examples from the Instruction Manual or the first lesson practice page. Work the problems together utilizing the Build, Write, Say method.

Build: Use the manipulatives to demonstrate and model the problems.

Write: Write down step-by-step solutions while working through the problems.

Say: Talk through the “why” of the concept as you build and write.

Step 3: Practice

Practice to Achieve Mastery

Using the Lesson Practice pages from the Student Workbook, allow students to practice the new concept until mastery is achieved. These pages allow students to work independently; however, help should be given when needed.

Mastery means that the student not only understands a new concept but can also apply the concept independently to solve a problem. It also means that the student can teach back the concept using the Build, Write, Say method.

Read more about how to determine if your student has achieved mastery.

Step 4: Progression

Progress after Mastery

Has your student demonstrated mastery? If yes, move on to the Systematic Review pages for that lesson.

If your student quickly demonstrated mastery, they may not need to complete all of the Systematic Review pages. You can utilize the Tests booklet (except for Primer) to assess your student’s progress. Then, when you’re confident your student has mastered the concept in the current lesson, move on to the next lesson!

If they have not yet mastered the concept, your student may need additional practice, reteaching, and review of the concept. Additional resources are available on the Digital Toolbox.

Individual Placement

Our interactive placement tool will help you find the proper placement for your student. This questionnaire includes yes/no questions
and example problems to work through with your student if more
clarity is needed.

Classroom Placement

The classroom placement tests give insight to determine the appropriate level for each student’s initial placement. Additionally, a baseline is established to help support later data-driven assessment and progress monitoring.

Using Math-U-See in Different Learning Environments

By providing a diverse set of tools, the Math-U-See Curriculum has been successfully used in a variety of environments.

Homeschool Public Schools Private Schools Independent Study Program Tutoring Support Groups & Co-Ops

Homeschool

The Math-U-See Curriculum provides home educators with the tools needed to guide their students in learning math concepts.

Our instructor materials are designed to provide clear guidance and support, enabling the home educator to confidently introduce and model new concepts. Additionally, the instructor will be able to determine when students have achieved mastery and are ready to move to the next lesson. Student workbooks provide practice opportunities, systematic reviews, and tests that allow students to apply what they have learned.

With the flexibility of the Math-U-See Curriculum and the one-on-one nature of a homeschool environment, home educators can meet the unique needs of their students.

Public Schools

More than 300 public school districts have successfully implemented the Math-U-See Curriculum into their classrooms! In a public school setting, the Math-U-See Curriculum is most often used in small group learning environments such as Special Education Classrooms, Resource Classrooms, Intervention, and Title 1 schools.

Teachers can utilize the lesson videos, instruction materials, and digital manipulatives, making it easy to develop lesson plans and demonstrate key concepts using the manipulatives. Incorporating the Math-U-See Manipulatives gives students another tool to build their understanding of math concepts from place value to polynomials.

With our Product Training, teachers will be comfortable and confident in using the Math-U-See Curriculum in their classrooms.

Private Schools

The Math-U-See Curriculum provides a hands-on learning experience in a private school classroom setting. All learners, regardless of ability, remain engaged by the variety of ways in which the curriculum presents math concepts. Students at all levels can progress at a pace that is comfortable for their success.

Teachers can utilize the lesson videos, instruction materials, and digital manipulatives, making it easy to develop lesson plans and demonstrate key concepts using the manipulatives. Incorporating the Math-U-See Manipulatives gives students another tool to build their understanding of math concepts from place value to polynomials.

Our Product Training provides teachers with tools for classroom implementation and management.

Tutoring

The Math-U-See Curriculum can be used to supplement and reinforce math concepts with any student. With the support of one-on-one teaching and the unique approach of Math-U-See, tutors can illustrate mathematical concepts, helping their students achieve mastery.

While clear guidance for instructors is provided, it is important for tutors to become familiar with the core principles of Math-U-See. If you are a tutor who is interested in using the Math-U-See Curriculum with your students, please contact us to learn more.

Support Groups & Co-Ops

The Math-U-See Curriculum can be easily implemented in a small group or co-op setting. When utilizing the curriculum in this environment, it is important to remember that the program is designed to be student-paced. Instructors should work with parents and encourage them to work closely with their students at home to ensure that mastery has been achieved.

For successful use, students will need access to the Math-U-See Manipulatives during lessons, whether individual sets or shared in small groups.
