The Utah System Approach to Individual Learning (U-SAIL) Mathematics System was developed to make it possible for teachers to provide excellence in arithmetic instruction. It is based on the premise that in order to teach arithmetic well, teachers must accurately assess, teach directly, provide students with focused practice, corrective feedback, active learning time, and application of each mathematics concept taught until it is determined that a concept has been mastered. The system includes all of the elements necessary for the planning, organization, management and instruction of basic arithmetic concepts. The program outlined includes discussion and suggestions on five steps: (1) plan what you want to accomplish; (2) know the content to be taught; (3) organize for instruction; (4) establish a management system; and (5) teach effectively and efficiently. The sixth stage is a systematic approach to the classroom in action through a review of critical steps. The document also includes a content list for kindergarten through sixth grade mathematics concepts, a sequence for instruction, and a time schedule for a mathematics class. (PK)
