In Paths of Opportunity, TNTP explored the contributing factors of economic and social mobility that enable young people to thrive in school, career, and life. Young people who had access to highquality academic experiences and excelled in school were more likely to earn a living wage and report high levels of well-being in adulthood.1  \nAlgebra I, specifically, is an inflection point in young people’s education.2 The course, generally taken by ninth grade, is a gateway to the higher math courses that set students up for college and careers of their choice, including those in the growing STEM sector.3 Students who pass Algebra I by ninth grade are more likely to graduate high school, attend college, and earn higher salaries when they enter the workforce.4  \nUnfortunately, access to high-quality, coherent academic experiences in mathematics is far from a given. Too many young people come to Algebra I with significant learning gaps due to inconsistencies and interruptions in their mathematics instruction over several years. Scores from the 2024 National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP) show that only 28 percent of students across the country were proficient in eighth-grade math.5  \nSince nearly all algebra content draws on knowledge from prior grades, most students enter Algebra I with a lot of ground to make up, and there are real consequences for failing the course. Students who do not complete Algebra I are four times more likely to drop out of high school than those who pass.6 Given the long-term impact of academic success on young people’s lives, it’s critical to help more students succeed in Algebra I.  \nSo, we asked the question: How can we help more students master Algebra I, especially those who start the course with significant unfinished learning?  \nEducators are doing their best to both teach Algebra I content and address each student’s learning gaps from prior grades. But since the course builds on such a large body of prior knowledge, it’s hard to know how to support students at different levels of algebra readiness.  \nWhat’s more, few districts and schools have a coherent instructional program, where the curriculum, materials, interventions, and assessments all work together to advance the same set of grade-level expectations. Wholeclass instruction (Tier 1) and intervention (Tier 2) often run on separate tracks. So how can teachers and intervention specialists work together more effectively to support students in Algebra I?  \nTo find out, we analyzed three years of data from more than 2,000 math students who used an online learning platform by New Classrooms called Teach to One Roadmaps as a supplement to their core Algebra I classes.7 In Roadmaps, students practiced both grade-level Algebra I content and algebra-related concepts and skills from prior grades, which gave us detailed data on how students learned concepts and skills over t","cbCainSBTSgfc29v","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainSBTSgfc29v","pdf",852030,26,"English","# Introduction\n# Findings\n# Recommendations\n# Appendix\n# Acknowledgements\n# Endnotes","[{\"question\":\"Why is Algebra I considered an inflection point in students’ education?\",\"answer\":\"The course is a gateway to higher math and has strong links to graduation, college attendance, and higher salaries.
