ORIGO Education, a prominent provider of elementary math solutions for students in Pre-K to Grade 6, has introduced a new program called ORIGO Intervention Essentials. This program aims to improve math fluency for Tier 2 and Tier 3 intervention students in Grades 3-8 by combining effective math strategies with comprehensive professional learning. The goal is to help students overcome math anxiety and enhance their confidence in math.
Many students in Grades 3-8 struggle with math anxiety, which can lead to a cycle of avoidance and declining skills. ORIGO Intervention Essentials focuses on not only teaching students how to “do” math but also helping them truly understand it. This approach empowers students to face challenges with confidence and develop crucial problem-solving skills.
Studies have shown impressive results from the use of ORIGO Intervention Essentials. Over 80% of Tier 3 students who utilized the program showed improved fluency, and nearly 50% achieved full mastery. These outcomes highlight the effectiveness of ORIGO’s evidence-based strategies.
One of the key features of ORIGO Intervention Essentials is its flexibility in integration into existing school schedules. The program can be implemented in just 15 minutes daily or divided into two sessions of 30-40 minutes, allowing schools to customize the program to meet their specific needs without disrupting regular instruction time. Additionally, teachers, coaches, and paraeducators can easily implement the program without the need for additional staff, maximizing resources and maintaining educational continuity.
The program also includes built-in progress monitoring tools to ensure that students are continuously progressing and to provide timely interventions when necessary. Dr. Sara Delano Moore, vice president of content & research at ORIGO Education, emphasized that ORIGO Intervention Essentials not only addresses the immediate needs of struggling students but also nurtures a long-term appreciation for math among students and educators.
