Maximizing the Benefits of InterventionThere are some students for whom regular classroom mathematics instruction is not sufficient to meet their needs. These students typically fall one or more years below grade level and lack the basic foundation of math understanding in number and operations on which to build new learning. This course helps teachers consider and make informed choices about the instruction they provide students who need more time and support to learn math. Participants learn alternative teaching approaches that engage and motivate struggling students, are paced for their success, and bolster their confidence and competence. Grades K–8.
Content: School or district determines content focus of addition and subtraction; multiplication; division; and/or fractions.
Resource Materials: Supplementary resources are chosen based on course content and district needs.
