Stage 1 – Assess: Accurate assessment for baselining students’ maths and numeracy skills

Our computer-adaptive solutions enable educators to precisely measure students’ maths abilities and numerical understanding at the start of the new school year. This foundational baseline offers reliable data, highlights any learning gaps, aids in instructional planning, simplifies goal setting, and provides insights into student progress in numeracy.

 

Stage 2 – Apply: Purposeful practice and instruction to ensure students build the essential skills for success in numeracy

After baselining, educators can use this assessment data to tailor teaching strategies, set goals, and track each student’s progress in mathematics. This ensures effective instruction and intervention, laying the groundwork for their success in numeracy.

While instruction is essential for developing students’ numeracy skills, consistent practice is what solidifies learning. Renaissance offers a flexible pre-K-12 numeracy practice solution that provides students with unlimited, targeted, and skill-focused maths practice resources. Purposeful practice both in the classroom and at home is critical to supporting ongoing numeracy development. Engaging students in dynamic, real-world maths problems helps maximise their mathematical potential.

Aligned to the science of mathematics and numeracy

How can our solution support your numeracy baseline and enhance students’ maths practice?

Set accurate goals

Establish precise, data-driven goals tailored to each student’s current maths abilities and future growth targets.

Track and monitor progress

Continuously monitor student progress through real-time data, ensuring that students stay on track toward their numeracy goals.

Conduct timely interventions

Identify learning gaps early and implement targeted interventions to address issues before they hinder overall progress in mathematics.

Personalise learning and practice

Customise instruction and practice activities based on individual student needs, fostering more effective and engaging numeracy learning experiences.

What do educators around the world think?

Data from the Progress Test in Maths showed us that we needed to develop more opportunities for the children to have fluency with their mental recall and mental calculations. This fed directly back into the planning cycle for this past year and we made a significant shift in the delivery of the maths curriculum with positive results.

Maths is different because maths needs to be taught, so there’s less potential for incidental learning. We wanted an equivalent to Accelerated Reader to help support them – which is when we discovered Freckle.

We are seeing a lot of gaps being bridged because Star Maths is allowing us to clearly see all the different objectives that are missing with our low ability students, but we are also seeing where we can really push and challenge our more abled learners.
