Math struggles often hide longer than reading struggles because they show up as avoidance, shutdown, or "not trying" rather than an obvious skill gap. This session covers practical, evidence-based interventions for students who are behind in math, plus how to recognize when disengagement is actually a signal of unmet academic need.

Even well-designed lessons can fall short when students are unclear about what they are learning or how to approach a task. This session explores evidence-based practices related to explicit and systematic mathematics instruction, including modeling, worked examples, and purposeful scaffolding. Participants will consider how instructional clarity can support student understanding while maintaining opportunities for mathematical […]
