Essential Strategies for Teaching Students with Learning Disabilities to Think Mathematically
This two-day course will provide teachers with 4 research-based strategies to teach students with learning disabilities how to think and reason mathematically. Participants will leave: Understanding what it looks like when students reason mathematically – quantitatively, structurally, and through repetition. Knowing 4 essential strategies to engage students, support their development of mathematical thinking, and develop independence. Ready to support each and every learner to develop as mathematicians.

This task was a fantastic entry point for a fourth grade class for this routine. Students felt comfortable with the numbers, and were able to then focus on the routine and the visual representations. We had a fantastic discussion about what the third visual model would be, and students loved the routine! A great start!
