Mathematics Instruction for Students with Learning Disabilities or Difficulty Learning Mathematics: A Guide for Teachers
Jayanthi, Madhavi; Gersten, Russell; Baker, Scott
Center on Instruction
This guide for teachers is a companion piece to the meta-analysis from the Center on Instruction, "Mathematics Instruction for Students with Learning Disabilities or Difficulty Learning Mathematics: A Synthesis of the Intervention Research". Based on the findings of this report, seven effective instructional practices were identified for teaching mathematics to K-12 students with learning disabilities. It describes these practices and, incorporating recommendations from "The Final Report of The National Mathematics Advisory Panel" as well, specifies research-based recommendations for students with learning disabilities and for students who are experiencing difficulties in learning mathematics but are not identified as having a math learning disability. [To access "The Final Report of The National Mathematics Advisory Panel" see (ED500486) This publication was created by Instructional Research Group.]
