Designed to complement any core math program, Number Worlds works with your schedule to make learning easy, effective, and fun. Flexible implementation options and routinized lessons help you make the most of every moment, while digital tools like Building Blocks™ Adaptive target each student’s specific needs with engaging, personalized learning.
Number Worlds has 10 levels to meet the prevention and intervention needs of your PreK–8 students:
Prepare PreK–1 students with the foundational skills and concepts necessary to be successful with more complex mathematics in the future. Each prevention level consists of 32 weeks of daily instruction including lessons on time and money.
Help students in Grades 2–8 learn the foundational skills and concepts needed to master key mathematical standards. Designed for flexibility, the five six-week units can be taught in any order to help identify student needs.
The weekly planner is your roadmap to success—mapping out an entire week of lessons complete with Learning Objectives and all the resources needed to maximize instructional time. Each planner is prefaced by a brief overview of the week, background information, and refreshers for the mathematics principles relevant to the unit.

How many minutes is your intervention math block? Number Worlds empowers teachers to provide high-quality Tier 2 or 3 instruction complementary to any core math program and within a variety of time frames. All three lesson tracks include opportunities for students to engage in multimodal learning activities, review through practice and formal assessments, and demonstrate content mastery through project-based learning.
Organized into four key sections—Warm Up, Engage, Reflect, and Assess—Number Worlds streamlines instruction for busy teachers and makes for a more structured, productive, and enjoyable classroom environment.
Warm Up provides cumulative review and practice to set the stage for learning.
The core of the lesson instruction, Engage provides research-based instructional strategies to solidify students’ understanding of the math concepts. Learning tools include instructional models, hands-on activities, written exercises, discussion, and more.
Reflect promotes critical thinking by encouraging students to summarize and apply lesson concepts in multiple ways, including discussion, drawing, writing, or modeling with manipulatives.
Wrapping up each lesson, Assess allows teachers to informally evaluate student progress and determine the need for additional practice.
So many of our students have reached grade-level proficiency in such a short amount of time.
Integrated into the Number Worlds program, Building Blocks Adaptive is a collection of nearly 200 game-based activities designed to guide students along research-based learning trajectories. Building Blocks Adaptive personalizes the learning experience to each student’s needs, reinforcing mathematical development and transforming students into active “doers” of math.
