  • Math Extensions helps support students learning in their Math classes and helps to build confidence in their Math skills.


  • Students begin each class with a standards based warm-up and then move onto more personalized instruction through projects, small group mini lessons, and computer based programming aligned to students growth areas.


  • By participating in Math Extensions, our scholars have the opportunity to further connect with Math and see themselves becoming more successful in their Math classes and with everyday skills requiring Math.


The normal structure of class and grading guidelines is as follows:

  • Complete the Math Minute Do Now (10 points each)

  • Spend 30 minutes on Study Island each class (20 points each class)

  • Complete any small group instruction activities or Independent Choice Assignments (10 points each)

  • Complete any assigned homework (will have at least 2 per month) (15 points. Based on effort and completion)
