Description

Target the Mathâ€¦Support the Studentsâ€¦Provide Access for All The need for focused small group math instruction has never been greater.

Todayâ€™s education landscape is fraught with learning divides unlike anything weâ€™ve faced in recent years.

We need new ways of teaching students who have remarkably varying levels of understanding and vastly different needs. Meaningful Small Groups in Math, Grades K-5 offers practical guidance on how to meet the diverse needs of todayâ€™s students.

Written for K-5 classroom teachers, math interventionists and instructional coaches, this user-friendly, accessible book provides guidance on the necessary components of small group instruction in math, trajectories for small-group instruction on specific concepts, and practical steps for getting started.

Readers will find Checklists and templates for implementing small group, sample lessons in the major content domainsEmphasis on flexible groupsIntervention and extension ideas for differentiating learningA chapter devoted to developing small-group programs across a school or organization Small group instruction in mathematics has not been as well-developed as its counterpart in the reading world.

In K-5 math classrooms, small-group instruction has typically been reduced to learning centers and rotation stations, with little emphasis on differentiated, small-group, teacher-facilitated learning.

To meet the needs of todayâ€™s students, a more focused approach is needed.
