K-7 Mathematics Course
 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
5
 Number Sense: Integers
 Number Sense: Decimals and Fractions
 Geometry
 Logic and Reasoning
 Measurement
 Data/Statistics/Probability
6
 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 week
These minutes should occur with regular use
such as every day or every other day
CFAs (Correct First Attempts): 90-100 per week
After 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
http://epgyschools.stanford.edu/sma
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 lectures
 Use 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??????
