    KeyMath Digital Assets: Coming Soon!

    The digital assets for the Essential Resources are in development and planned for an early 2025 release. All digital assets will be found in the Q-global Resource Library.

    For the Essential Resources (ER), student-facing materials are downloadable and may be duplicated; materials for professional use are view-only. Interested customers will want to view Level 1 and Level 2 ER content options for the areas of mathematics needed for intervention/instruction purposes.

    KeyMath-3 ER can be used effectively in a variety of settings and with different student populations. The program’s comprehensive scope enables you to use it over an extended period of time as a supplement to regular classroom instruction. Alternatively, teachers can select lessons on particular topics to provide targeted intervention for individual students or small groups.

    Students who benefit from the program include at-risk students, those performing below grade level, and those struggling with specific concepts.

    Benefits

    • Includes well organized lessons featuring easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions, effective modeling of new concepts and skills.
    • Covers hands-on exploration of new concepts through the use of common manipulatives.
    • Engages students in critical thinking.
    • Challenges students to explain their thought processes with problem-solving activities.
    • Adapts for large group, small group, or one-on-one use.
    • Aligns with all tiers of the RTI framework.

    Keymath-3 ER includes a manual, 4 instructional easels (2 per level), Half-page opaque and full-page transparent easel clip-in, and materials for guided and independent practice. 

    • Coverage of three content areas: foundational math concepts, operational skills, problem solving.
    • Ten instructional strands: Numeration, Algebra, Geometry, Measurement, Data Analysis and Probability, Mental Computation and Estimation, Addition and Subtraction, Multiplication and Division, Foundations of Problem Solving, Applied Problem Solving.
    • Large-format instructional easels that include nearly 900 pages of colorful Lesson Displays.
    • More than 350 lessons accompanied by 1,200 Guided Practice and Independent Practice sheets.

    FAQs

    Frequently asked questions follow. Click on a question to see the response.

    KeyMath–3 Diagnostic Assessment

    Is the KeyMath–3 Diagnostic Assessment aligned with state standards?

    The KeyMath–3 Diagnostic Assessment was designed around the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards published in the Principles and Standards for School Mathematics in 2000 and the Curriculum Focal Points in 2006. Many, if not most, of these standards are still upheld today and underlie many state standards.

    How often can I administer the assessment to a student?

    The KeyMath–3 Diagnostic Assessment can be administered as often as every 3 months when alternating between Form A and Form B.

    How long does each subtest take to administer?

    Administration times for the entire battery of subtests range from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the student's grade level. Practitioners may elect to administer only the subtests that correspond to a particular content area, which will result in a shorter administration time. The table below shows estimated KeyMath–3 administration times, by content area and grade.

    Estimated Administration Time (in Minutes), by Area and Grade

    		 

    KeyMath–3 Essential Resources

    Is the KeyMath–3 Essential Resources program only for instruction with one student or can I teach more than one student at a time?

    The KeyMath–3 Essential Resources materials are designed for maximum flexibility and allow teachers to teach multiple students at one time. The easel presentation of the student activity is designed for use with smaller groups of 1–5 students. When working with 6 or more students, teachers may elect to access the same material in digital format via the Q-global resource library for use with classroom digital displays. Coming in 2025!

    What is the difference between readiness tests, posttests, and mastery tests?

    Readiness tests are administered prior to the lesson being taught to determine whether the student has the prerequisite skills necessary to learn the applicable concept(s). Posttests are administered after all activities in the lesson have been taught to determine whether the student has grasped the concept(s). In cases where a student did not grasp the required concept(s), the teacher should re-teach the lesson as necessary. Mastery tests are used to determine whether a student has mastered the applicable concept(s).

    Does the KeyMath–3 Essential Resources program include manipulatives?

    No, but some program lessons require the use of common classroom objects (e.g., rulers, cubes).

    If I do not have the KeyMath–3 Diagnostic Assessment, can I still use the KeyMath–3 Essential Resources program?

    Yes, the KeyMath–3 Diagnostic Assessment provides a direct link to appropriate curriculum activities in the KeyMath–3 Essential Resources, but you can use the program on its own.

    My ASSIST CD-ROM no longer is working. What can I do?

    The ASSIST is no longer available. At this time, hand scoring must be completed and details about scoring each subtest can be found in the test manual starting on page 17.
