Math-U-See is a complete, skill-based, multi-sensory mastery curriculum for grades K-12. Designed to teach students specific skills in a definite, logical sequence, this systematic and cumulative approach will help students learn how to solve math problems and discover why they're solved in such a way.
This Beta Universal Set includes everything you need for the Beta level, including the Instruction Manual, Instruction DVD, Student Workbook, Tests Booklet, Integer Block Kit, and lifetime access to the Beta Digital Pack. The Beta level builds on Alpha's focus on mastery of single-digit addition & subtraction with a focus on addition & subtraction for multiple-digit numbers. This level also covers understanding and using place value, solving for an unknown addend, understanding US currency, comparing numbers and lengths, and more.
The Integer Block Kit includes 133 pieces, and is the only one you'll need for all levels of Math-U-See, from Primer through Algebra 1; it includes 20 ones and tens, 13 fives, and 10 each of twos, threes, fours, sixes, sevens, eights, nines, and hundreds blocks, plus the Decimal Street/Block Clock poster.
The Instruction Manual features 30 lessons with detailed instructions that include illustrations of manipulatives and other visual modeling strategies. The back of the book contains line-listed answers to the student workbook and tests.
The Instructional DVD features Steve Demme teaching a classroom each lesson. Each video lesson will help teachers understand the concepts being taught, as well as how to demonstrate it (as applicable); students can also watch with the teacher if deemed helpful.
The Student Workbook contains a number of worksheets for each lesson along with systematic review pages. Extra "Application & Enrichment" activity pages provide additional lesson practice through a range of age-appropriate activities.
The Tests Booklet provides opportunities for assessment with a test for each chapter, unit tests that cover multiple chapters, and a final test. Test answers are in the Instruction Manual.
The Beta Digital Pack includes an Instruction Manual PDF, lesson and test solutions, streaming instruction videos, skip count song MP3 and songbook PDF, access to the Math-U-See Digital Manipulatives, and other online resources.
