Publisher's Synopsis
Mathematics is often seen as the most difficult content to learn. In this era, learners are more visual and tactile. We need to be cognizant of those who learn differently than the way we did. When the curriculum is provided in a way that helps students learn best, most can be successful learning mathematics. As teachers of mathematics, we find many students who struggle with the fast pace, reading, or just need to refresh their understanding to become proficient with the current Standards for Mathematics. Research has identified strategies to support English Learners and students with special needs. They are especially powerful in any class learning mathematics. Current research shows that the strategies promoted for special education classes and English Learners are the same strategies that should be used as "good teaching" for all students in mathematics.
