Contents:
Mathematics in today's schools: the context for learning challenges -- Foundations of mathematics learning -- Mathematics assessment -- Effective mathematics instruction -- Problem-solving instruction -- Instruction and collaboration for general education settings -- Resources to support mathematics instruction and integration -- Introduction to content strands -- Strand A number sense, place value, and number systems -- Strand B whole-number relationships -- Strand C rational numbers -- Strand D spatial and geometric reasoning -- Strand E measurement, data analysis, and probability -- Strand F Algebraic reasoning.
Summary: "This richly updated third edition of Math Instruction for Students with Learning Difficulties presents a research-based approach to mathematics instruction designed to build confidence and competence in pre- and in-service PreK-12 teachers. Referencing benchmarks of both the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, this essential text addresses teacher and student attitudes towards mathematics as well as language issues, specific mathematics disabilities, prior experiences, and cognitive and metacognitive factors. Chapters on assessment and instruction precede strands that focus on critical concepts. Replete with suggestions for class activities and field extensions, the new edition features current research across topics and an innovative thread throughout chapters and strands: multi-tiered systems of support as they apply to mathematics instruction."
