Game Plan Printables
Sports-stats math intervention for grades 6–8 — built for the students who've checked out of math. SPED, IEP, ADHD, and every kid who lights up for game day.
"I'm just
bad at math."
By grade 6, a student who's fallen behind has usually stopped trying — not because they can't, but because worksheets stopped meaning anything. Game Plan Printables meets them somewhere they already care: the box score. Real sports stats become the on-ramp back into fractions, decimals, integers, and averages.
The method
Every worksheet follows a Concrete → Representational → Abstract path with confidence cues and a worked example before students try it alone. It's evidence-based instructional design — structured for the learners who need the scaffold, not just extra problems.
Start with something real and countable — model the situation before any symbols appear.
Bridge to a picture — a fraction bar, a number line — so the idea is visible, not abstract.
Only then the numbers and the standard algorithm, with the worked example right there to check against.

Designed and aligned to Common Core (CCSS) math standards — that alignment is the seller's professional determination, not an endorsement by any state or CCSS.
The structure draws on established intervention practice (CRA, worked examples, spaced retrieval). We say "evidence-based design" — not "proven results," because your classroom is the real test.
Fictional teams and stats. AI-assisted design, human-reviewed page by page. No real players, no stock-photo students, no invented reviews.
