What Are the Math Roadmaps?

If you’ve ever looked at your yearlong plan and thought, “How am I going to teach all of this and make it stick?” you’re not alone.

The Math Roadmaps were designed to uncomplicate that exact challenge. These spiral-bound guides were built specifically for Florida teachers, coaches, and school leaders working with the B.E.S.T. math standards.

They help you see the big picture, make smart instructional decisions, and actually understand how it all fits together.

At the core of every Math Roadmap is the M.O.S.T. framework. A research-informed structure that helps you prioritize, spiral, and scaffold math instruction in a way that actually reflects how students learn.

Uncomplicate Ed's Roadmaps to Mastering Math Comprehension of Florida's B.E.S.T. Math Standards


What's Inside

Each roadmap includes:

  • Every benchmark labeled as Major, Ongoing, Stepping Stone, or Targeted

  • Clear rubrics that describe what mastery looks like across phases

  • Suggested sequencing that utilizing interleaving and distributed practice

  • Student-friendly anchor charts

  • Tools to support small groups, interventions, and PLC planning

Everything is written in plain language and designed to be useful right away. No fluff. No guesswork.


Built on Research. Not Trends.

These aren’t just pretty templates. The Math Roadmaps are grounded in cognitive science and decades of math education research. They pull from trusted names like:

  • Van de Walle, Karp, and Bay-Williams

  • David Sousa

  • Berch and Mazzocco

  • Agarwal and Bain

  • Willingham

  • Brown, Roediger, and McDaniel

  • Stanislas Dehaene

And movements like ResearchED and advocates of explicit instruction.

Because tools that are built on how learning actually works don't just help teachers—they help students succeed.

The phase pages breakdown each benchmark into 4 phases: a pre-phase, phase 1 (beginning the learning), phase 2 (developing understanding), and phase 3 (mastering)

Each benchmark has an accompanying student anchor chart that breaks the benchmark down into student-friendly language and visuals, including sentence prompts to help students begin crafting their response.


What is the M.O.S.T. Framework?

In math, everything matters, but not everything matters the same way.

The M.O.S.T. framework helps you understand which benchmarks need repeated focus, which ones grow alongside other skills, and which ones need early mastery to unlock later success.

  • M = Major Concepts
    These are the big ideas. They need depth, time, and multiple exposures across the year.

  • O = Ongoing Work
    These standards don’t go away. They show up again and again in other benchmarks.

  • S = Stepping Stones
    These are your “before we can” skills. Get them in place early to unlock deeper work later.

  • T = Targeted Support
    These aren’t one-and-done. They need to be re-engaged over time to stick.

It’s not a checklist (though we have those, too). It’s a way to plan smarter and teach more effectively with room to adjust for your students and their needs.


Who It's For

These were made for every educator responsible for math learning:

  • Teachers who want structure without rigidity

  • Coaches who support multiple grades and want shared language

  • Leaders who need a clearer picture of what’s happening in math instruction

You can use them for unit planning, small group instruction, reteaching, PD sessions, and even walk-through support.


What You Get

  • A full-color, spiral-bound roadmap that’s durable and designed for everyday use

  • Digital access to student anchor charts and skill checklists

  • Tools and language aligned directly to Florida’s B.E.S.T. math standards

  • Clarity, confidence, and a year that makes more sense
