Description
The need for focused small group math instruction has never been greater. Today’s education landscape continues to be fraught with learning divides, and unlike its reading counterpart, small group instruction in elementary classrooms has often been reduced to learning centers and rotation stations, without enough emphasis on differentiated, small-group, teacher facilitated learning. We need expanded ways of differentiating so we may fully support 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 today’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. 280 pages.
Readers will find:
• Checklists and templates for implementing small group instruction, with sample lessons in the major content domains
• Emphasis on flexible groups that take into account students’ strengths and increase their math identity and self-efficacy
• Intervention and extension ideas for differentiating learning
• An appendix of tips for coaches and leaders to scale Math Small Groups across a school or organization.
