Quatrième de couverture :

Teaching Learners Who Struggle with Mathematics:

Responding With Systematic Intervention and Remediation, 3/e

Helene J. Sherman, Lloyd I. Richardson, and George J. Yard

 

A valuable and necessary resource for teachers of remediation and intervention.

 

This book is designed for aspiring and practicing teachers who will work or are working with K-6 students in need of remediation and additional math instruction. Addressing the mathematical concepts students struggle with most, including place value, addition and subtraction of whole numbers, multiplication, division, fractions, and time and money, this book analyzes the roots and causes of frequent error patterns in student work and offers implementable solutions for solving them and teaching lifelong math skills. A Data Analysis Sheet is presented as an example for each problem area and followed by a Math Improvement Plan that offers guidance on how to instruct students in need of additional intervention and prepare them with lifelong mathematics skills.

 

"This book is very user-friendly, and easy to follow. It clearly states indicators and common misunderstandings students have and offers practical and do-able interventions."

 - Aadina A. Balti, Math Facilitator, Mason Pilot Elementary School, Roxbury, MA
