Mathodology Roundtable - Accelerating Math For Learning Recovery
Dr.Nicki Newton & Sarah Schaefer
So, how do we teach students who have gaps in their understanding at grade level? Dr. Nicki Newton provided some knowledgeable information and practical tips to help us all understand what accelerating math for learning recovery looks like
Idea #1: Know the progression. If we know the progression (the spiral) of content areas in math, we can find and attend to the gaps to then scaffold learning up to current grade level.
Idea #2: Connect the learning experience to lived experiences. Make learning culturally relevant and visual!
Idea #3: "Acceleration isn't just what you want students to learn, it's how you want them to feel." A positive disposition of math and confidence in self develops when we in build relationships with students and encourage students to self reflect on their learning and growth. These contribute to success in one's educational journey as much as knowing the content.

Just curious, how would you solve the first one if a child has not started algebra as yet? That's the only method coming to mind. How else can I facilitate this?
