What Is the 5-Day Focus Math Intervention Curriculum?
If you’re supporting students in math intervention, you already know: progress doesn’t come from rushing or reviewing—it comes from building deep understanding, one skill at a time.
That’s exactly what the 5-Day Focus Math Intervention curriculum is designed to do.
This K–5 system gives you a clear, structured way to move students forward, without spending hours planning or scrambling for the right materials.
One Skill. Five Days. Real Progress.
Each 5-Day Focus unit zooms in on a single, high-impact math skill—the kind of skill that unlocks bigger concepts and deeper understanding. No huge spirals, no trying to cover everything at once. Just one concept, taught well.
“This is a great resource to help you with interventions! It’s organized, easy to understand, and saved me a lot of prep time.”
— Myers Science, TPT Buyer
Across K–5, you’ll find units focused on skills like:
- Playing With Numbers to 10 (Kindergarten)
- Counting On To Add (1st Grade)
- Adding Decade Numbers (2nd Grade)
- Patterns in Multiplication (3rd Grade)
- Comparing Fractions (4th Grade)
- Decimal Place Value (5th Grade)
Consistent System & Structure To Simplify Your Planning
Every 1st–5th grade unit follows the same predictable rhythm:
- Day 0: Pre-Assessment to help you match the right skill to the right student
- Days 1–5: Explicit, CRA-Aligned Lessons that build understanding from concrete to abstract
- Built-In Daily Independent Practice that reinforces the day’s concept
- Daily Exit Tickets so you can track understanding in real time
- Day 5: Post-Assessment to confirm growth or determine next steps
You won’t need to prep elaborate centers or decode complex pacing. Everything is ready to go, but flexible enough to fit your group’s needs.
“I use [these units] them regularly and appreciate the structured approach. The pre- and post-tests, along with the exit tickets, provide a great way to track student progress.”
— Dynamic Duos, TPT Buyer
Built for How Students Learn & And How Teachers Teach
These aren’t cookie-cutter worksheets or scripted lessons. Every element is thoughtfully designed to support deep math thinking—and to make your job easier.
- Lessons move from concrete to abstract using visual models and guided discussion and thoughtful linking between stages.
- Teacher prompts and examples help you anticipate misconceptions and scaffold instruction
- Practice activities are reusable and engaging—perfect for reteaching, centers, or spiral review
“My students have a better grasp of the concepts with the fun and engaging activities. The assessment pieces throughout are so helpful.”
— Amber M.
You’ll have everything you need to teach the concept well, and the freedom to adjust based on how your students respond.
What About Kindergarten?
Kindergarten math intervention is a world of its own and the 5-Day Focus system is designed to meet those unique needs head-on.
Unlike the 5-day structure used in upper grades, Kindergarten units follow a 10-day cycle that emphasizes repetition, routine, and hands-on learning, just right for early learners.
Here’s what makes Kindergarten different:
- 10-Day Instructional Cycles: Skills are introduced, revisited, and reinforced over time to support mastery
- Built-In Routines: Each lesson includes consistent number sense boosters like counting, number writing, and oral math
- Developmentally Appropriate: Every activity is playful, movement-friendly, and designed for early learners working in small groups
“I purchased this after using and loving the first-grade intervention curriculum set. The kindergarten version did not disappoint! Systematic, explicit, and engaging activities to help my students meet their IEP goals.”
— Erin Purrington, TPT Seller
Even though the format is different, the heart of the curriculum remains the same: helping students grow in meaningful, measurable ways.
Fits Right Into Real Classrooms
Whether you’re an interventionist, special educator, classroom teacher, or math coach, 5-Day Focus was built to support you, not overwhelm you.
It’s:
- Easy to prep
- Flexible to use
- Aligned to how math skills build across K–5
- Grounded in research and responsive to student needs
“This has been a game changer. I’m able to provide engaging activities while teaching in a multisensory way. The lessons are detailed and help me use each tool well.”
— Alexandra R.
“As a first-year math interventionist in K–5, this resource has been a tremendous help. It guides my planning, and my students love the activities.”
— The Learning Loon, TPT Buyer
