The Standards
The 2020 Mississippi Alternate Academic Achievement Standards for Mathematics Grades 3-5 is comprised of
six conceptual categories: number and quantity, algebra, functions, modeling, geometry, and statistics
and probability. The different categories combine to provide a broad scope of the study of
mathematics.
Remaining Material in the Teacher Resource Guide
The remaining materials in the teacher resource guide (performance objectives, real world
connections, vocabulary, and resources) were developed through a collaboration of Mississippi
teachers, administrators, the Mississippi Department of Education (MDE) Office of Special
Education staff, and the Mississippi State University Research and Curriculum Unit staff.
Page | 7 5-May-21
Introduction
The MDE is dedicated to student success, improving student achievement in mathematics and
establishing communication skills within a technological environment. The Mississippi Alternate
Academic Achievement Standards (MS AAAS) provide a consistent, clear understanding of what
students are expected to know and be able to do by the end of each grade level or course. The
purpose of the Alternate Standards is to build a bridge from the content in the general education
mathematics framework to academic expectations for students with the most significant cognitive
disabilities. The standards are designed to be rigorous and relevant to the real world, reflecting the
knowledge and skills that students need for success in postsecondary settings.
Purpose
In an effort to closely align instruction for students with significant cognitive disabilities who are
progressing toward postsecondary settings, the MS AAAS for Mathematics Grades K-8 includes
course-specific standards for mathematics. This document is designed to provide a resource for
kindergarten through eighth grade special education teachers with a basis for curriculum
development and instructional delivery.
The Teacher Resource Guide for Mathematics Grades 3-5 contains prioritized content, which is presented
as a matrix to show the continuum of the concept across complexity levels. The matrix shows
varying access points to the prioritized content. A student’s progression through content contained
in the matrix is intended to be fluid. It is not the intent, nor should it be practice, for a student to be
exposed to content in a straight vertical line through one of the columns. Every student, regardless
of disability, comes to the learning environment with a different set of prior knowledge and
experience. For this reason, a student may be able to access some content from the middle
complexity level and access other concepts at the more complex level. Teachers should evaluate a
student’s ability in relation to the content and select the entry point based on that evaluation.
Students should not be locked into receiving exposure to all content at the same entry point.
Support Documents and Resources
The MDE Office of Special Education aims to provide local districts, schools, and teachers
supporting documents to construct standards-based instruction and lessons, allowing them to
customize content and delivery methods to fit each student’s needs. The teacher resource guide
includes suggested resources, instructional strategies, sample lessons, and activities. Additional
sample activities and resources for selected standards may be added; this shall be a living document
with ongoing updates based on educator feedback. The intent of these resources is to assist teachers
in linking their instruction to the prioritized content. The teacher resource guide includes activity
adaptations for students with a varying range of abilities within the classroom. The activities and
adaptations provided are intended to serve as a model of how students participating in the
Mississippi Academic Assessment Program-Alternate (MAAP-A) may receive academic instruction
in mathematics. There are many ways in which skills and concepts can be incorporated based on
students individual learning styles and needs. Professional development efforts are aligned to the MS
AAAS for Mathematics Grades 3-5 and delivered in accord with teacher resources to help expand
expertise in delivering student-centered lessons.

Structure of the Teacher Resource Guide for MS AAAS for Mathematics Grades 3-5
MS AAAS for Mathematics Grades 3-5: A general statement of what students with significant cognitive
disabilities should know and be able to do because of instruction. This guide includes statements
that describe in precise, measurable terms what learners will be able to do at the end of an
instructional sequence; ways educators can link theory to real world activities; focused vocabulary
banks; and additional teaching resources.
I Can Statement(s): These statements include the Performance Objective(s) as the Most Complex
and scaffolds the performance objectives two additional levels (B) and (C) to Least Complex. This
matrix demonstrates the continuum of the concept across complexity levels. The purpose is to
assist teachers in modifying to meet the unique diverse needs of learners with significant
cognitive disabilities.
Real World Connections: These items help facilitate learning that is meaningful to students and
prepares them for their professional lives outside of school. When teachers move beyond
textbook or curricular examples and connect content learned in the classroom to real people,
places, and events, students can see a greater relevance to their learning. Real world connections
are used to help students see that learning is not confined to the school, allow them to apply
knowledge and skills in real world situations, and personalize learning to increase and sustain
student engagement.
Vocabulary: These lists include difficult or unfamiliar words students need to know and
understand.
Resources: These resources include instructional strategies, lessons, and activities. Additional
sample activities and resources for selected standards may be added; this shall be a living
document with ongoing updates based on educator feedback. The intent of these activities is to
assist teachers in linking their instruction to the prioritized content.

Levels of Support (LOS)
Students with significant cognitive disabilities require varying LOS to engage in academic content.
The goal is to move the student along the continuum of assistance toward independence by
decreasing the LOS provided and increasing student accuracy within the context of content to
demonstrate progress.
The following chart describes the continuum of LOS. Appropriate LOS are important to increase
student engagement and student independence and to track student achievement and progress.
Level of
Assistance
Definition Example Non-Example
Non-
Engagement (N)
The student requires assistance
from the teacher to initiate, engage,
or perform; however, the student
actively refuses or is unable to
accept teacher assistance.
The student resists the teacher’s
physical assistance toward the correct
answer.
The student does not look at the
activity.
Physical
Assistance (P)
The student requires physical
contact from the teacher to initiate,
engage, or perform.
The teacher physically moves the
student’s hand to the correct answer.
The teacher taps the correct answer
and expects the student to touch
where he/she tapped.
Gestural
Assistance (G)
The student requires the teacher to
point to the specific answer.
When presenting a choice of three
pictures and asking the student which
picture is a triangle, the teacher will
point to or tap on the correct picture
to prompt the student to indicate
that picture.
The teacher moves the student’s
hand to gesture toward the right
answer.
Verbal
Assistance (V)
The student requires the teacher to
verbally provide the correct answer
to a specific item.
The teacher says, “Remember, the
main character was George. Point to
the picture of the main character.”
The teacher says, “Who is the main
character?” without providing the
information verbally.
Model
Assistance (M)
The student requires the teacher to
model a similar
problem/opportunity and answer
prior to performance.
The teacher models one-to-one
correspondence using manipulatives
and then asks the student to perform a
similar item.
The teacher completes the exact
same activity as the student is
expected to perform.
Independent (I)
The student requires no assistance
to initiate, engage, or perform. The
student may still require other
supports and accommodations to
meaningfully engage in the content
but does not require assistance to
participate and respond.
The teacher asks the student, “Who is
the main character of the book?” and
the student meaningfully responds
without any prompting or assistance.
The teacher asks the student, “Who
is the main character?” and
points to
the picture of the main character.
