- Slide 2
- What do you mean by Dont get fooled again? So what
interventions do I use?

- Do not worry about your problems with mathematics, I assure you
mine are far greater. -Albert Einstein
- Slide 12
- Why math? Why now? Completing Algebra II correlates powerfully
with college graduation and earning in the top quartile of income
Job growth in math and science outpaces other fields 3:1 Demands
for remedial college math are vast and growing Large disparities in
math achievement according to race and income New Oregon diploma
requirements
- Slide 13
- Common Contributors to Math Failure Curriculum and instruction
breakdown Our cultural Mindset (Dweck) Mindset: the belief that
learning is based on either EFFORT or TALENT. It is especially
pervasive in our society: one is either good or bad at math, for
example. In many other countries, math achievement is attributed to
effort!
- Slide 14
- Create a growth mindset around Mathematics. There is no MATH
GENE Improve teachers knowledge about Mathematics. Provide
professional development in practices, not just programs.
- Slide 15
- Universal screener Match your instructional philosophy to
universal screener and progress monitoring tools.

- University of Oregon College of Education Center on Teaching
and Learning C TL 16 Recommendation 1 Screen all students to
identify those at risk for potential mathematics difficulties and
provide interventions to students identified as at risk. Institute

Mathematics: Response to Intervention (RtI) for Elementary and
Middle Schools Level of Evidence: Moderate
- Slide 17
- It is cleaner to have the same Universal Screener and Progress
Monitoring tool. Most of the research is around progress monitoring
tools, which are then applied to screeners.
- Slide 18
- Curriculum sampling + Direct link to grade level instruction +
Helpful in designing remediation - only shows growth across 1 year
- must be linked to a curriculum Robust indicators + Across
multiple grade levels + Predictive of future outcomes - Less

each session to building fluent retrieval of basic arithmetic
facts. Level of Evidence: Moderate

- Interventions Emphasis on research-based instructional
strategies (not programs) Increase opportunities to practice a
skill correctly Guided practice (I do, We do, You do) Correction

- RTI for identification is only possible if tiered support and
corresponding elements are in place Professional Development is
critical in enhancing both the teaching of mathematics and data
based instructional decision making Districts and schools should
think of developing math specialists similar to reading specialists
Our understanding of how best to teach and assess mathematics is
rapidly expanding Stay connected and be flexible in your approach

- Why Writing Up to two-thirds of the new jobs in the near future
will require a college education and high-level literacy skills,
including the ability to write clearly, cogently, and effectively
At present, 90% of white collar workers and 80% of blue collar
workers say that writing is important to their job success For
salaried jobs, writing has become a gateway to hiring and promotion

- Correct Writing Sequences A correct writing sequence refers to
two adjacent writing units (word/word or word/punctuation) that are
acceptable within the context of what is written. The term
acceptable means that the writing sequence is syntactically and
semantically correct. Heartland AEA: CBM 2001

each word written A word is any letter or group of letters
separated by a space, even if the word is misspelled or a nonsense
word. Examples: The sky was blue TWW = 4 The sky was blue TWW = 4
The sky was blew TWW =4 The sky was blew TWW =4 I tuk a baf TWW = 4
I tuk a baf TWW = 4 I tuka baf TWW = 3 I tuka baf TWW = 3

- Primary Grades Students spend only 20 to 30 minutes a day
writing (with little of this time spent writing expository text)
40% of teachers make few or no adaptations Very little time devoted
to teaching process Students rarely use computers to write Little
connection between school and home in terms of writing One-third of
teachers indicate their college teacher preparation program were
inadequate Dr. Steve Graham, Vanderbilt
- Slide 74
- Intermediate Grades Research 15 minutes a day spent teaching
writing 25 minutes a day spent writing (research reports, writing
to inform, & persuasive writing infrequent) There is little
computer use 67% of teachers indicate their college teacher
preparation program was inadequate Teachers use research-based
practices infrequently
- Slide 75
- Slide 76
- Problems with Written Language Instruction Minimal attention to
explicit writing instruction Minimal time allocated to writing
tasks Writing instruction is introduced too late in the curriculum
Writing is disconnected from the curriculum
