Foundational Skills for Middle School Students
Aha!Math Foundations for Middle School provides teachers with an effective, Web-delivered supplemental math resource for middle school students who need review or who are working below grade level. Aha!Math engages and motivates students to review and relearn critical foundational concepts to be successful with middle school curriculum. The interactive, animated content in Aha!Math makes math come alive through Instruction Modules, Lessons, Games, Activities, Journals, and Quizzes. It engages them in learning and practicing, tying new concepts to earlier concepts, and modeling the connection between concrete math models and symbolic math representations.
Flexible and teacher-directed
Teachers are fully in charge of when
and how they use Aha!Math, whether
it’s for whole class instruction or for
differentiated learning, in small groups
or for individual students. Teachers
can preview all content and sequence
material any way necessary to meet
their students’ needs. Teachers can
also easily and quickly integrate their
own proven lessons, providing unlimited
opportunities to individualize instruction.
Research-based
Aha!Math incorporates current
research into how students learn with
Web-delivered content to create the
most effective learning experiences for
a diverse range of students. Timely,
positive and corrective feedback,
and constructive interactivity motivate
students to engage in math. They
grasp the how and why of what they
are learning so they can apply
that learning in a variety of contexts,
including high-stakes tests.
Reteaching key concepts
Students who are below grade level
benefit from Aha!Math’s digital delivery,
which enables them to hear instruction
on a concept multiple times, and in a
completely consistent manner. Digital
coaches give students emotionally
consistent instruction and feedback,
whether it’s repeating instruction,
correcting their responses, or rewarding
a correct answer. Aha!Math also gives
students the opportunity to revisit the
instructional content and to hear the
instruction with no variations in
presentation.
Journaling provides insight
Aha!Math’s unique online journaling
enables teachers to create math literacy
exercises, and gives them a simple way
to present new word problems, enabling
students to explain their application of
math concepts. Through journaling,
students develop fluency with academic
vocabulary, and teachers get insight into
students’ learning.
Anywhere, anytime access
Because Aha!Math is Web-delivered,
students enjoy its lessons and games
anywhere they have a computer and
Internet connection, reinforcing
classroom learning, and supporting
both low- and high-performing students
in computer labs, and in extended-day
and summer school programs. Students
can also log in at home, building the
home-to-school connection.

The lively action in Aha!Math’s Games captures and keeps students’ interest, enabling them to apply their learning, and motivating them to come back again and again.

Aha!Math models for teachers multiple approaches for math’s critical concepts, and digital coaches motivate students and provide corrective and positive feedback.
