Avoiding Rules that Expire - Enhancing your Mathematics Instruction for Students with Disabilities

Webinar Overview

Objectives:

  • Participants will learn how to use the CSA model for instruction (Concrete – Semi-Concrete- Abstract) to build students’ conceptual understanding
  • Participants will learn to avoid “teaching by telling” including navigating away from “rules that expire” and less than precise mathematical vocabulary
  • Participants will learn to use connections to prior knowledge and multiple representations to support student’s long term understanding. 
  • Participants will learn how to engage students in mathematical thinking and make math memorable.
