Components of the Program

think! Mathematics Teacher Resource Materials is a printed teacher guide that is based on various learning theories.

Designed in accordance with extensively-researched approaches used in Singapore, these books adopt a spiral design with the integration of the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (C-P-A) approach.

A three-part lesson structure of Anchor Task, Guided Practice and Independent Practice are adopted. ICT, concrete aids and manipulatives are incorporated. Students have opportunities to hone problem-solving skills and apply Mathematics in real-world contexts.

Combining the effectiveness of teaching pedagogies and innovative ideas, the content has been aligned to the Common Core State Standards.

Student Textbooks A & B

Lessons begin with an Anchor Task problem for students to explore. The anchor task provides opportunity for the students to explore BEFORE structured learning takes place. Each anchor task is designed to support struggling learners as well as extend the learning of advanced thinkers.

The Let’s Learn provides opportunities for students to read and reflect on the methods raised during the class discussion.

Guided Practice offers scaffolded questions to further consolidate the learning and assess student learning.

Each chapter includes activities, a mind workout, math journal, and self-check.

Student Workbook A & B

Each lesson has a corresponding workbook page with well structured problem sets that meet the lesson objectives.

Workbooks also include Mind Workout exercises that provide enrichment for students to apply relevant heuristics and extend the concepts and skills learned.

Reviews follow each chapter where Cumulative Reviews occur after every three to four chapters.

Student Resource Package

Back by popular demand!

Similar in format to Online Learning instruction we offered this spring, the student resource package offers explorations, practice and reflection opportunities by topics covered in think!Mathematics. Students are able to choose the content to match students’ learning needs. Designed for remote instruction and organized around the 3-Part lesson structure, students will be able to follow lesson on their own! We have incorporated the tasks from the student textbooks, practice from the student workbook, and additional math activities, books, and printable journal prompts. If you are looking for rich mathematics that engages students on a level apart from that of completing workbook pages you have come to the right place!

Student Resource Package is available to classrooms that have purchased a classroom set of textbooks or workbooks for the current school year.

Access codes are assigned by classroom teachers.

Teacher Guide

Teacher Resource Materials
Exploring- In a 60-minute lesson, about ten minutes should be set aside for exploration. The teacher may present the Anchor Task and invite students to work on the task with their friends and the materials provided.
Formalizing- This is the part of the lesson where the teacher orchestrates the unfolding of the different methods to solve the problem in the Anchor Task.
Board Plan- The teacher is the students' role model in how one records mathematical ideas. Teachers are encouraged to plan how they record ideas on the board.
Journaling- Is the part of the lesson where students document their thinking. They learn to articulate and explicate their ideas.
Let's Learn- This is the part of the lesson where students look at the textbook pages and compare their methods with those in the textbook.
Practicing- This is the part of the lesson where students complete practice in the textbook with a friend in an interactive fashion and, perhaps, write on mini-whiteboards.
Assessment Checklist helps teachers gauge students' understanding and identify gaps in learning or any needs for reinforcement.

Student Books

Student Textbook
Explore before Structure - Students are encouraged to explore their ideas before they are being helped to organize their ideas into some kind of mathematical kind of structure.
Concrete before Abstract- Students are encouraged to learn abstract ideas through concrete experiences and pictorial representations. This is often referred to as the C-P-A Approach.
Meaning before Procedure- Students are encouraged to explain their thinking. The focus is on developing relational understanding even as students learn particular procedures. Students are never expected to carry out rote procedures.
Learning before Practice- Every lesson begins with an Anchor Task for meaningful and deep learning. This is then followed by the Guided Practice which allows the identification of errors and misconceptions which are remediated before students practice on their own.
Enriching before Accelerating- Students are encouraged to delve deeper into the current ideas rather than move on to other lessons immediately.
Student Workbook
Worksheet- Each lesson closes with independent practice in the workbook.
Mind Workout- Comprises higher-ordered thinking tasks as enrichment for students to apply relevant heuristics and extend the concepts learned.
Review-Follows after each chapter for consolidation of concepts learned in the chapter.
Cumulative Review-Provides an assessment of the consolidation of concepts and skills across strands and topics.
