“It’s simply the best math program I’ve ever seen. … In just the first year, Ramp-Up Mathematics helped our lowest-performing students jump more than a full grade level on state assessments.”

“As a results of being involved with America’s Choice, our math classes have changed. You no longer see students sitting passively while a teacher lectures. You see students communicating about the math, using academic language, working with a partner, and writing. Ramp-Up to Algebra gives students many opportunities to explain their reasoning.”

Ramp-Up to Algebra

- is aligned to California Standards
- is delivered in a 90- or a 50-minute period with extra help after class, giving students more time to learn, practice, discuss, and think about math
- includes instruction in core skills, problem solving and concepts
- has an approach to classroom management that builds students’ math-learning skills, provides more instructional time, and helps teachers differentiate instruction
- has richer problem situations that trade superficial coverage of unnecessary topics for deep conceptual understanding of the concepts critical for success in algebra.
- Includes an approach to arithmetic and algebra fundamentals, such as linear notation, that smooth the transition to Algebra 1.
- is a language-rich environment for reading, writing, and talking about mathematics.
- addresses the needs of ELL and Special Needs students.
- Includes everything you need to succeed, with well-crafted teacher and student materials, comprehensive assessments, and extensive online (and optional in-person) professional development
