Product Description
Supplement for Mathematics Methods courses. Rich with case studies and assorted examples, this brief, targeted text is dedicated to helping future teachers address the cognitive needs of children in Grades 1-6 who do not understand mathematical concepts and/or are not as skillful as they should be with those concepts. The authors present a systematic, three-step approach to assess students' math strengths and weaknesses and plan instruction accordingly. This involves: 1) using the Data Analysis Sheet (DAS) to assess and record learners' skills and error patterns; 2) complete a Mathematics Improvement Plan (MIP) with specific instructional approaches to improve skills students need; and, 3) set up the activities and intervention strategies to improve student performance. This approach allows teachers to meet individual needs.

Teaching Children Who Struggle should be required reading for any teacher of young children. Given a specific deficit, there are multiple strategies and instructional procedures that will remedy the issue. Material from Math Recovery is clearly explained and convincingly supported.

Super book! Great practical ideas for this mom and teacher! Both my 9 and 12 year old daughters were struggling to wrap their minds around the division algorithm. I read the chapter on division in the book, bought some base-ten blocks, and held about 8 practice sessions with the girls by following the author's instructions. My 12 year old can now easily complete the division algorithm. My 9 year old can easily divided with the base-ten blocks and is beginning to grasp the algorithm. Yea! This is super progress for them both!
