Math and Coding
are authors and developers of solutions for CatchUp and New Learning in K to 10 interactive mathematics with on and off computer activities and introductory coding through mathematical game-based learning. Online and hands-on workshops create “Communities of Learning” through productive struggling from the Concrete to the Abstract leading to understanding.
In Coding we begin in the Concrete Phase in teaching the KaiBot on magnetic KaiTiles by scanning cards. We progress to the Abstract Phase by coding a virtual KaiBot on the computer screen within Kainundrum, a free learning environment which encourages productive struggling. Minds engage in rich, exploratory, open-ended enquiries, thereby creating, “Communities of Innovation”, as they share explorations and findings.

Resources are available online. “Understanding Math”, programs for K to 10 are in their 11th version since incorporation in 1999. MIT’s pioneer of Artificial Intelligence, Dr Seymour Papert, inventor of LOGO, the powerful language of learning, met with Mr. Neufeld. The result was the eResource, “First Steps in Coding to Learn”, K to 8 lessons with LOGO. We are now launching a new eResource, “First Steps in Coding through Mathematical Thinking and Game-Based Learning” which contains step by step lessons and activities. Screen-free coding uses Kai Education’s KaiBot. This leads to more abstract block coding in an online coding environment, Kainundrum.

Teach, don’t Tell professional learning support on and off-computer lessons for virtual and in-class learning. (see www.umathx.com)
We develop mathematics UNDERSTANDING with UMathXI.
We REINFORCE fractions, order of operations and numeration with Bullseye.
What is UMathX?
UMathX by Neufeld Learning Systems is the 10th version of Understanding Math. A browser based, computer assisted, interactive learning environment supported by 3 part off-computer model lessons to offer blended, tiered learning to empower all in virtual and in-class learning (hybrid model) from K to Algebra 1 (grade 10).
- Over 3500 Lessons
- “Understand Why” rather than “Remember How”
- Diverse learning environment
- Address the needs of all students
- Digital, tactile and more traditional approaches
- Concrete to abstract
The versatility of UMathX allows it to be used as a core resource or as a supplement to classroom instruction. From teacher-led whole class lessons to an environment where students work individually or in small groups, UMathX can meet the needs of all students.
Content and Curriculum Menus
The Content Menu is helpful in filling gaps in knowledge. The Curriculum Menu aligns to major curricula and offers three types of online assesment, which can then direct additional learning based on results.
Frameworks for Learning
Three-part model lessons in printable pdf format, give suggestions for implementing UMathX with the focus of “building it, drawing it, talking it, writing it, then owning it” within a variety of learning environments which include STEM and RTI.
Available on All Screens
The 11th version of UMath X Premiere is launching soon, and will be available on all screens and devices.
UMathX supports all learners and learning environments, from the classroom to the home user.
Professional Development
At UMathX we believe professional growth is essential. Available for groups or individuals, either in person or by webinar. We empower every user to achieve their potential. Details are available at our Training page.
