Building Number and Operations Skills
Connecting to Common Core
In the Base Ten domain, the Common Core State Standards expect that students use place value understanding and properties of operations
to perform three-digit addition and subtraction by the end of grade 3. They must also understand multiplication concepts and are learning
multiplication and division facts.

In the Fractions domain, students build on their understanding of fractions as parts of a whole or parts of a set to develop an understanding
of fractions as numbers on the number line. They recognize that the denominator tells the size of the equal parts and the numerator how
many of those parts.

These students are likely to struggle not only with word meanings but also with concepts in both literary
and informational texts. For this reason, they are likely to remain below level in Comprehension once they
develop both accuracy and fluency in decoding. Thus, word meanings, word relationships, and word parts
should also be a focus of small-group instruction.

Review Decoding two-Syllable Words
• Provide targeted instruction and practice decoding two-syllable words with long vowels (open syllables, vowel pair syllables, CVCe syllables).
• Provide practice identifying syllable boundaries of two-syllable words.

Focus on Decoding Longer Words
• Provide plenty of opportunities to practice decoding 3-4 syllable words. Create word lists using 10-15 longer words and repeating each five times. Then have
students practice reading them aloud.
• Provide practice identifying syllable boundaries of a word based on morphemic units (prefixes, suffixes, base words, and/or root words).
• Provide targeted instruction and practice on decoding longer words with prefixes and suffixes.

Support for English Learners Be explicit. Teach and reinforce all vocabulary as lessons take place. Encourage exploration and discussion of the concepts
named by each word. Use graphics or objects to reinforce understanding wherever possible.

Sample lesson: Drawing Conclusions and Making Inferences (Level 4)

1 Students are immediately drawn into the
lesson because it simulates a discussion
a teacher might have with them. 2 If students don’t know the meaning of certain
words, they can mouse over them and instantly
see the definition.

Assessments at the end of
each module allow educators
to measure student progress.

A proven instructional approach
that’s especially helpful for struggling learners
All the online instructional modules follow the same structure:
• Instruction: Students learn a skill through explicit instruction—systematic, clear, and precise.
• Guided Practice: Once students have been taught a skill, they practice what they’ve learned
and receive support along the way to reinforce understanding.
• Progress Monitoring: Students are assessed at the end of each lesson, and if they score below
75%, they’ll automatically get immediate remediation. Administrators can also change the
threshold to higher than 75%.

4 By dragging and dropping the numbers
from the table to the line plot, students
see the relationship between the data in
the table and the data on the line plot.

3 Here, students are guided step-by-step
through how to analyze and interpret data on
a plot line, first by learning key definitions, like
“range”, and then interacting with the line plot.

5 Students then apply what
they’ve just learned to
questions that build in
complexity—getting helpful
corrective feedback along
the way.
