Riassunto

<div>"Solving for Why offers educators the tools and guidance essential for successfully solving for why students struggle with mathematics. The step-by-step, RTI (Response to Intervention) &#8211; like approaches, focused on assessment and communication with students, help teachers gain insight into student understanding in a remarkably different way than recipe-type approaches that assume the same solution applies to learners with similar struggles. With Solving for Why you&#8217;ll learn how to: <br>&#8226; identify a struggling math learner; <br>&#8226; develop theories for why a learner may be struggling; <br>&#8226; facilitate a Concrete &#8212; Representational &#8212; Abstract (CRA) Assessment; <br>&#8226; implement an insightful Collaborative Study; <br>&#8226; conduct powerful student interviews; <br>&#8226; support learners who struggle with memory challenges, attention deficit disorder, and affective difficulties (math anxiety); <br>&#8226; differentiate instruction through a main lesson &#8212; menu lesson plan; and more. <br>Each chapter includes reproducible templates for ease in carrying out the assessments. A final section offers resources for supporting students who struggle with additive reasoning, multiplicative reasoning, fractions, and proportional reasoning. The reproducibles are also available in a downloadable, printable format at www.mathsolutions.com/solvingforwhyreproducibles.<br>"<br></div>
