TECHNOLOGY UPGRADE!
New Version 4.0
New graphics, OSX compatible!
Math Trek is a creative teacher-designed math software series in which students advance at their own pace as they explore math concepts, skills, and applications and develop competence in the areas outlined in the NCTM standards.
MATH TREK LEVEL 1 CONSISTS OF FIVE TITLES:
- Number Sense and Numeration
- Patterning and Algebra
- Geometry and Spatial Sense
- Data Management and Probability
- Measurement
Each title includes three areas:
INTERACTIVE TUTORIAL
In each unit, students participate in an interactive tutorial which presents concepts and skills in clearly explained and illustrated steps. Lessons incorporate lively moving screens and optional videos which keep students focused and increase their understanding. Students learn how to use mathematical tools such as calculators and protractors as they increase proficiency in associated content areas.
Math Trek Level 1 introduces many topics in the context of their real world applications. For example, students find geometric shapes in bicycles, computers and buildings. They compile tally sheets while watching cars travel across the screen; then create a variety of graphs from their data. They also learn how statistics may be distorted to support false advertising claims.

ACTIVITIES
In the Activities section for each title, inventive open-ended problems and projects reinforce learning while helping students discover the wonders of math and how math relates to their lives. They integrate mathematical skills with information from other curricular areas, e.g. map skills and animal facts in Number Sense and Numeration.
PRACTICE/TEST
Students may choose questions to check their own skill development or may be directed by the teacher to specific questions for assessment purposes. Math Trek offers a variety of randomly generated questions on each specific skill and provides immediate feedback to the student. The teacher is able to see how each student is progressing by using the tracking system.
SPECIAL FEATURES
Student Tracking System: This record keeping accessory will track student performance across one, two, or all of the Math Trek units. The system reports each students time spent on task and supplies test results and averages. Teachers may access this information on-screen and print it out.
Glossary: Math Trek Level 1 contains a Glossary of mathematical terms commonly found in the elementary school curriculum.
Blackline Masters: Each program includes Blackline Masters that may be used in individual or group classroom activities or in homework assignments.
