Guidelines for Exact Path Usage & Math Progress Monitoring
The following are the math guidelines recently communication for your reference.
EXACT PATH USAGE (GRADES 1-5)
• Students in Grades 1-5 are expected to work on their individual Exact Path Learning Path 40
minutes per week until ALL grade level standards in Exact Path are mastered. It is recommended that this be completed during the IE block, twice per week for 20 minutes per session.
• The following are IE Block scenarios could be considered:
o Two days per week on Exact Path & two days on non-computer IE activities (Readingand/or Literacy based on student needs). Example: Tech Tuesday & Tech Thursdayduring IE Block.o This will allow students to engage in independent reading up to 3 days per week.o A 40-minute IE Block could be broken into two 20-minute segments. Two days perweek, students in Tier 2 Intervention could spend 20 minutes in small group with theteacher and 20 minutes on Exact Path. On those two days, this would allow the teacherto work with two different skill groups.
• We will begin looking at Exact Path Usage in future grade level data meetings.
STUDENTS WHO WILL BE PROGRESS MONITORED IN MATH (GRADES 1-5)
• The following students must all be progress monitored in math each week:
o All students in the 40th percentile or below (NPR) on Exact Patho All Tier 3 Math studentso All students on PST for Matho All Students on IEP who have a math goal
PROGRESS MONITORING PROCESS (GRADES 1-5)
• Students will be monitored by the classroom teacher using Exact Path. These students will be
assigned a lesson for independent review and assessment, following a week of intervention for
the teacher on that specific skill. Note: Weekly intervention must align to the skill assigned for
progress monitoring.
• In addition to weekly progress monitoring by the classroom teacher on Exact Path, Tier 3
students will be monitored by the interventionist on Do the Math.
• Special Education students – Students should be progress monitored by the Sped Teacher
providing math services on the following: 1) Sped goals, 2) Progress within each student’s path
as well ask skills they have learned in the classroom.
• All teachers will record their progress monitoring data on the grade level spreadsheet shared
with the team.
STUDENTS WHO WILL BE PROGRESS MONITORED IN MATH (KINDERGARTEN)
• The following students must all be progress monitored in math each week:
o All students in the dark orange (overall score) on Forefront.o All Tier 3 Math studentso All students on PST for Matho All Students on IEP who have a math goal
PROGRESS MONITORING PROCESS (KINDERGARTEN)
• Students will be monitored by the classroom teacher using Forefront. The district math
specialist will provide a link (per problem/skill) to remediate and assess students’ progress.
• In addition to weekly progress monitoring by the classroom teacher on Exact Path, Tier 3
students will be monitored by the interventionist on Do the Math.
• Students should be progress monitored by the Sped Teacher providing math services on the
following: 1) Sped goals, 2) Progress within each student’s path as well ask skills they have
learned in the classroom.
• All teachers will record their progress monitoring data on the grade level spreadsheet shared
with the team.
