Curriculum Fixes are short practice structures, not replacement programs.

The shared-screen tools in this section are most useful when the class already has a learning target and needs one part of it made more visible, repeatable or discussable. The point is not to replace a literacy, mathematics, music or assessment program. It is to give the teacher a focused practice routine that can fit inside the lesson already being taught.

Choose by the learning problem. A student who cannot see equal groups needs a different support from a student who knows the multiplication structure but cannot retrieve a fact fluently.

For rereading, make the first read useful

Shared Reading Fix records visible bumps during the first pass so the second read has a purpose. It is better for whole-class oral rereading than for diagnosing an individual reader. Keep individual assessment separate.

For multiplication, slow the fact down before speeding it up

Multiplication Fix rebuilds shaky facts with arrays. Use it when the representation matters. If students are still unsure what equal groups mean, stay with the array rather than pushing response speed.

For rhythm, keep the sequence hear → see → perform

Beat Fix separates listening from watching and clapping so students are not asked to process everything at once. Visible rests and subdivisions give the teacher something concrete to point to when a pattern breaks down.

For drawing, teach persistence through small visible steps

Drawing Fix uses WATCH → WAIT → DRAW → CHECK. The drawing is the vehicle; the classroom practice is attention, memory, pacing and recovering from an imperfect line without starting over.

For performance self-assessment, keep the level separate from the grade

Quick Check can make a four-level reflection visible after PE, drama, dance, health or another performance task. It works best as a conversation starter about evidence and next steps, not as an automatic mark generator.

A shared-screen routine is strongest when it gives the class something concrete to see, hear, compare or rehearse. If the screen adds directions without clarifying the learning, close it and teach the idea more directly.
