What Is Mathtree®?
MathTree is a program that assesses 200 math skills through a series of six diagnostic tests. The skills assessed range from basic skills through pre-algebra skills. MathTree is set up so that students can accomplish swift remediation of missing skills, then learn new skills.
MathTree features:
- 200 skills from simple addition to negative fractional exponents, organized into six levels
- Skills arranged so that the foundations are continuously laid for more advanced skills
- Finer points of skills that frequently cause problems split out as separate skills
- Within a level, skills of several types but similar difficulty
- Levels I, II, and III skills: Basic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, and percents
- Levels IV to VI: Skills that ease the student into pre-algebra and beginning algebra by progressing seamlessly from numbers to variables
- Free response student work rather than multiple choice, providing the teacher access to the process the student is using to get an answer
Each MathTree level contains:
- An inspiration page with analogies drawn from various parts of a tree (Roots, Trunk, Branches, Twigs, Stems, and Leaves)
- A diagnostic test
- Two skill lists, one listing the skills on the test in order, one listing the skills on the test by skill type
- One stand-alone skill sheet per diagnostic test question with simple, clear, conversational instructions
- Three groups of problems, all of a similar level of difficulty, on most skill sheets
- Two or more reassessment tests.
The Teacher's Handbook contains:
- Explanations of the MathTree system
- Complete annotated answer keys for all tests and skill sheets
- An overall progress record for each student
