What's Missing in Math Instruction?

Test Preparation and Classroom Strategies That Show Students How to Apply What They Know in Meaningful Ways

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Discover four simple shifts in instruction that will help students demonstrate what they know on any math test. Each shift is supported with numerous examples targeting math concepts that students generally find challenging. We start with explicit instruction--a planned approach to direct and clear explanations of concepts and skills. Then, chunking information makes the cognitive load more manageable for students. Innovative ways to revisit concepts throughout the year will help students retrieve information when they need it. Assigning a variety of question types with useful prompts and strategies will prepare students to tackle any problem, on any test.
