K-7 Mathematics Course
5
Math Races: Important for improving speed and automaticity
Lectures: Mini-lessons that provide base of knowledge
Exercises: Problem solving to move through the curriculum
Motion: Determines mastery and next strand and exercise
Hints: Remediation when first response is not correct
6
Number Sense: Integers
Number Sense: Decimals and Fractions
Geometry
Logic and Reasoning
Measurement
Data/Statistics/Probability
7
After each exercise, depending on the result, the program determines what a student should do next
This ensures individualization even for similar students

Time: 90-100 minutes per weekThese minutes should occur with regular use such as every day or every other day
CFAs (Correct First Attempts): 90-100 per weekAfter each exercise, depending on the result, the program determines what a student should do next
Reports are easily accessed for the teacher for the group or for the individual
Students and parents can view individual student progress, strand by strand, including a replay of work completed (Session Calendar)
The Concept Summary gives details of progress through course concepts
Teachers can also view the entire group and use reports to drive instruction
With a click on the desktop icon

EPGY creates a username and password for each student
The teacher can find the usernames and passwords on the “reports” tab in the management system under “student accounts”
A login screen will appear
You should click on “Run Course” to begin the program
Math Races come at the beginning of each session
The goal of a math race is to work on speed and accuracy
You will race against your previous performance
You will select a race car or a swimmer, answer the question, click “enter” or “return” to see a green (correct) or red (incorrect) flash
When the races are completed, the program will advance the student to the lesson
Swimmers or Fast Cars
Start !!!
The cars !
Listen, Read, and Take Notes
…to work independently.Listen to the lecturesUse notebooks to list vocabulary,
to list other facts to remember, to use to write out a process or a calculation
Use the hints to answer the exercise on a second try
Calculators??????
