The lessons and materials are designed using Universal Design for Learning to best meet the needs of a diverse student population.

Unit 1: Numbers to 120 builds fluency of numbers up to 120 through introducing the skill of counting on from a specific number, understanding the count sequence to add, subtract, and order to 120, grouping by tens and ones using multiple strategies, quickly adding and subtracting by ten, skip counting by 2s, 5s and 10s, and using all skills to solve word problems. Within each lesson students will be exposed to new skills and concepts, practice them whole group, engage in center activities and partner work, integrate movement, experience multi sensory learning, and demonstrate understanding with a variety of independent activities that apply the skills practiced in the lesson. This unit contains 11 lessons and multiple additional center and individual practice activities to reinforce, extend, and support learning in multiple ways. An end of unit assessment is also included to help inform and guide instruction, intervention, and next steps. 

In Good at Math® First Grade, each unit ends with a mini Project Based Learning unit that spans multiple days and requires students to use all skills gained within the unit to solve a real world problem and/or contribute to their community in a meaningful way. All planning, execution, and reflection pages are included as well as a full, detailed unit plan. 

With Good at Math® you can take the guesswork out of your math block and know that you are providing a developmentally appropriate and sequenced math program for your learners.
