Beta Set

Students should start at their individual level of mastery. While concepts are reviewed continuously throughout the Math-U-See Curriculum, it is important that previously presented concepts have prepared a solid foundation. Please read the information below and use the placement tools provided to determine which level best meets the needs of your student. 

Your student may be ready for Beta if they can:

• Count by tens
• Begin at any number and count to 100
• Write any number from 0 to 99
• Recall addition and subtraction facts from memory
• Use place value to identify the digits that represent units, tens, and hundreds
• Write mathematical expressions (number sentences) to represent a word problem
• Solve for an unknown in a simple addition or subtraction equation
  
  

Math-U-See placement tools are designed to help ensure proper initial placement and will give you a clear indication if your student is ready for Beta.
