Progression of Math Models and Terminology

Math Models

Math models are consistently utilized as part of our instruction and learning activities to promote student understanding of math content and skills. A finite set of concrete and pictorial models are used throughout the grades. Students build increasing dexterity with these models through persistent use within and across grade levels. The repeated appearance of familiar models helps to build critical vertical links between topics of one grade level and the next.
