The Largest Study of its Kind

WestEd recently published the largest study of its kind to evaluate ST Math nationally. including over 150,000 students between 2013 and 2016. Texas was among 14 states in the study with schools that used ST Math consistently (where more than 85% of students used the program and on average completed 50% of their grade-level content during the year). These high fidelity schools showed significant growth.

TEKS Alignment

ST Math aligns with the TEKS to ensure Texas students develop deep, conceptual understanding of math concepts to equip them for the challenges of the 21st century. Below is a small sample of ST Math puzzles that were designed to meet the rigorous demands of the Texas math standards.

 
Grade K
Numbers & Operations: K.3.A

Model the action of joining to represent addition and the action of seperating to represent subtraction.
Grade K ST Math Puzzles Aligned to TEKS Math Standard

This puzzle asks students to model addition and subtraction by joining and separating birds on a telephone line. Students use the manipulative to find the total number of birds.
Grade 2
Numbers & Operations: 2.6.B

Model, create, and describe contextual division situations in which a set of concrete objects is separated into equivalent sets.
Grade 2 ST Math Puzzles Aligned to TEKS Math Standard

In this example, the student has determined that if each purple monster eats 2 pears, as shown by the rate in the top left corner, than 8 pears should be seperated equally to feed 4 purple monsters.
Grade 4
Numbers & Operations: 4.3.E

Represent and solve addition and subtraction of fractions with equal denominators using objects and pictorial models that build to the number line and properties of operations.
Grade 4 ST Math Puzzles Aligned to TEKS Math Standard

This puzzle asks students to match a collection of fractions represented with a circular model to a single point on the number line. The blue pieces represent positive numbers, the red indicates a negative number.
Grade 7
Expressions & Equations: 7.10.B

Represent solutions for one-variable, two-step equations and inequalities on number lines.
Grade 7 ST Math Puzzles Aligned to TEKS Math Standard

In this example, the student must find the value of variable “a”. This two-step equation, 4 + 3a = 7, is represented on a number line.

Grade K Numbers & Operations: K.3.A

Model the action of joining to represent addition and the action of separating to represent subtraction.
