Math Intensive Lab

A comprehensive math intervention sequence for 6th-grade students, focusing on four key domains: Numbers & Operations, Algebraic Thinking, Measurement & Data, and Geometry. This sequence uses high-leverage strategies from the All Learners Network (ALN) and aligns with i-Ready prerequisite modules to bridge conceptual gaps.

Fraction Flash

Focuses on fraction fluency and conceptual understanding using 'Quick Images' and 'Number Line Talks' to build a solid foundation in part-to-whole relationships.

Lab Resources

General administrative and planning resources for the Math Intensive Lab sequence, including the unit overview and sequence-wide instructional supports.

Balance Beam

Explores the meaning of the equals sign and balanced expressions using 'True/False Equations' to move students toward algebraic reasoning.

Data Detectives

Develops data literacy through 'Story of a Graph' activities where students connect real-world scenarios to visual representations.

Shape Shifters

Strengthens geometric reasoning through 'Shape Sort' tasks, focusing on the properties and classification of polygons.

Ratio Radar

Explores the conceptual meaning of ratios and proportional relationships using 'Double Number Lines' and visual models to bridge i-Ready 6th grade gaps.

Integer Island

Introduces integers and absolute value using 'Contextual Stories' and vertical number lines to build a visual understanding of numbers below zero.

Pattern Pursuit

Uses visual sequences and function machines to help students identify, extend, and describe numerical patterns and rules.

Expression Engine

Focuses on translating real-world phrases into algebraic expressions and evaluating them using 'Contemplate then Calculate' strategies.

Metric Mission

Provides hands-on challenges to master unit conversions within the same system, focusing on the relationship between larger and smaller units.

Spread Spectators

Interprets measures of center (mean, median, mode) through data visualization and 'What's the Same? What's Different?' statistical talks.

Area Architects

Deepens understanding of area by decomposing complex shapes into rectangles and triangles using grid-based visual tools.

Net Navigators

Connects 2D representations to 3D volumes by exploring nets of prisms and pyramids to calculate surface area conceptually.
