Math Level Up
Our Math Level Up virtual online program has certified, highly-qualified teachers ready to provide instruction in mathematics. Each grade level will meet for a total of three hours each week. Students will have access to two online math programs (IXL & ZearnMath) for practicing inside and outside the classroom.
The Math Level Up virtual program will use ZearnMath as its main curriculum. ZearnMath uses a digital platform for independent practice, which reinforces core concepts introduced in the core lesson. Our learning model will include engaging activities, immediate feedback, student collaboration, and differentiated support. Visual models and digital manipulatives will accompany all activities. A teacher-assistant will work with the teacher for 30 minutes each day.
Total enrollment for this program will be be 15 students per grade level group.
Grades 1-6

Block 2/15 min:/Word Problem Students will be given a series of word problems related to a previous concept taught; they will work in independently and will then share their findings using a peer-discussion format. This block is also a launching activity for the new lesson.
Concept Exploration
Block 3/15 min:/Collaborative Concept Exploration In this block, the lesson will be presented using concrete examples (visual models and digital manipulatives). The teacher will model each problem presented; guided student discussion and collaboration will be used to teach the concept.
