About the Course

Utilizing high leverage instructional practices to support our elementary students in becoming proficient mathematicians is critical to stop the widening achievement gap. In this class, we will focus on six action oriented, research based recommendations from the IES (Institute of Education Sciences, March 2021) We’ll learn specific ways to effectively implement them in our practice to support struggling learners.  While the focus of the research is on instructional strategies for math intervention, the guidance outlined are great practices for all instructional settings. This class will include unique considerations for diverse populations of students who struggle with math concepts, including students with disabilities and multilingual learners.  

(Recommendations focus on Systematic Instruction, Teaching Mathematical Language, Use of Math Representations, Use of Number Lines, Deliberate instruction of Word Problems, and Timed Activities to build Fluency)

This course is appropriate for interventionists, special education teachers, elementary teachers, instructional coaches, and any other professional looking to grow their knowledge in supporting diverse learners in learning math.

Required Text:

Upon completion of this course, the educator will be able to:

  • Identify  and describe the 6 instructional recommendations developed by the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) in conjunction with the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) to support math learning for students who struggle in Grades K-6.
  • Analyze additional instructional resources to evaluate their potential to support implementation of recommendations.
  • Develop instructional plans targeted specifically to struggling readers, including students with disabilities and multilingual learners.
  • Implement specific instructional adjustments aligned to  research based recommendations in order to build math skills for struggling students.
  • Grade(s): Kindergarten 1st Grade 2nd Grade 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade Elementary K-5
  • Subject(s): Math Professional Development
  • Teacher Quality Standard(s): QS 1.A QS 1.B QS 1.C QS 3.C

This was a great class. I learned so much and all the learning was practical skills to implement into my math intervention class. The research based information is a game changer. The work load was reasonable. The assignments either solidified learning or were assignments that could be implemented into my math intervention class. Great class!

I really enjoyed taking this class. The workload was reasonable and the assignments were benecial. This course is the piece that has been missing in addressing the question of how to intervene for students who struggle in math.
