Methods in Foundational Math Intervention

Catalog description

& Summer In this course, Relay students learn fundamental skills to support foundational math intervention. They explore mindsets around mathematics and learner variability, their own math-related thoughts, feelings, and performance, and build their understanding of math-based disabilities. They learn about the aspects of mathematical rigor (i.e., conceptual understanding, procedural fluency, and application) and how to use various math assessment tools to evaluate students’ skills. After analyzing a student’s math assessment data, they plan accommodations/assistive technology and specially designed instruction in math in ways that support the development of conceptual understanding, procedural fluency, and application and are aligned to a student’s specific strengths and areas in need of support.
