Indepth Number-Sense Math skills via the Web or iPads for primary students
Symphony Math teaches School Years 1 to 6 Number Sense
skills. It is also suitable for Year 7 or 8 students who may still
need to remediate some of those skills.
Symphony Math® is a highly intuitive program that teaches
number sense skills at a conceptual level - helping students to
understand the deeper mathematical meaning and not merely
repeat answers by rote. The program automatically adjusts
activities offered based on students answers, progressing
students who demonstrate they already know a skill more
quickly, and providing extra practice to those who need it.
Each Skill is practiced using multiple “Ways of Knowing” which help
students visualize, r and apply ideas quickly and
accurately. Students use onscreen manipulatives such as:
Counting Bars, Dot Cards, Number Lines, Number Problems,
Word Problems, Fraction Bars and Auditory Problem solving.
THE BIG IDEAS
When students use Symphony Math, they aren’t just practicing their facts: they are mastering BIG IDEAS. Mastery is accomplished in several ways:
Conceptual Understanding Students use of different visual tools, like Dot Cards, Number Lines, and Counting Bars. When they master these tools, students connect them to traditional number sentences, then use them to solve real-world problems.
Fluency Students need both a solid conceptual foundation in math and also the ability to quickly and accurately solve common math facts. Symphony Math promotes fast recall of basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts using timed Mastery Rounds.
Adaptive Branching The program constantly adjusts the material provided based on students performance. Struggling students are automatically given extensive tasks that challenge them to truly master the material, while those who have mastered a concept are quickly promoted to the next BIG IDEA!

Working Memory is the #1 predictor of academic success.
Without training, working memory will not improve.
We CAN train working memory and support successful learning.
