Ellevation Math
Prepare ELs to access rigorous, grade level math content.

Ellevation Math develops the academic language of students in math by front-loading key vocabulary concepts within the context of solving math problems and provides practice in all four language domains - speaking, writing, reading and listening.

An Introduction to Ellevation Math

How it Works
A focus on the particular language needs of Secondary ELs.

Ellevation Math pre-teaches academic vocabulary in the context of mathematical concepts so that students can understand instruction and participate in class. When ELs are better able to engage in skill-building and rigorous class discussions, they are more likely to reach benchmarks, excel on assessments, and be placed in gifted / talented programs.

Front-loading without Overloading
Ellevation Math is a collection of Primers, or lessons, that ELs complete before math class in order to learn the math vocabulary through exposure to the content. They can also be used to review math vocabulary and concepts for students who need extra support in developing the language required for math instruction and assessments.

EL Specific Supports Included
Unlike other solutions in the marketplace, Ellevation has both the underlying student ELP data, AND the expertise, to deliver a set of supports uniquely tailored to the needs of every English Learner in your classroom. As students complete a Primer, they will find helpful supports like visual anchors, a dictionary with accessible definitions, printable reference sheets, adjustable read alouds, and more.

Age-Appropriate with Real World Examples and Vocabulary in Context
With content and art that are appropriate for adolescent EL, Primers build on what students already know, and use stories that relate to students’ lives and experiences. They also provide models of where math is used in varied careers and contexts to provide windows into relevant applications of math in the real world. The vocabulary appears in context within these scenarios, not just as lists of words.

Confidence Questions
Each Primer includes a Confidence Question where students self-report their comfort level answering certain questions. This allows teachers to know which students to call on to increase their confidence and participation in the classroom.

Your Scope and Sequence
During implementation, Ellevation works closely with key district stakeholders to ensure that the Primers support your scope and sequence. Ellevation Math works best when it is closely aligned to the instructional objectives of the teacher.

Standards Alignment
Aligned to TEKS.

Ellevation Math adjusts to the scope and sequence of any digital or print math curriculum and brings rich language supports and routines to your current math programs and textbooks. Our experts studied the TEKS standards, examined released items from TELPAS and researched the vocabulary that students will need to access lessons based on those standards, including words ELs may need additional exposure to as background.

Assessment and Reporting
Key insights into student progress.

Within Ellevation Math, students will engage in a variety of assessments that help teachers visualize student progress and enable them to best adapt their teaching to meet instructional goals and areas of need. Teachers have access to usage, results from Confidence questions, vocabulary tests and post-tests, allowing teachers to see which students might need further support and plan which words or concepts need to be retaught or discussed in class.

Classroom Integration
The flexibility to meet a variety of classroom needs.

Ellevation Math provides teachers with features that easily adapt to support a range of classroom schedules, styles, and needs. Teachers can manage student accounts, create groups and assign Primers to reach instructional goals. Because they can customize the experience for their class, teachers feel confident that all students will gain the knowledge they need to access math content.
