Tiered Intervention Institute
Do you have students who are performing below grade level but could get back on track with the right intervention? Do you have students who are working at grade level but in danger of slipping? Do you have students who are more than a grade level behind and lack even the most basic skills?
Greg Tang and Susan Resnick can help. Together, they have more than 50 years of teaching experience, provide PD for hundreds of public and private schools across the U.S., are contributing authors to major textbook programs, and have both won Teachers' Choice Awards for their books on mathematics.
We invite you to join us for a math-packed day at our Tiered Intervention Institute in St. Louis, New York, Philadelphia or Minneapolis. Greg and Susan will share some of the most effective, intervention strategies and techniques from the U. S. and Singapore – methods that have proven highly effective and helpful to students around the world.
Number Sense. Nearly all struggling students have poor number sense. We will use number bonds and bar models to give them a better, more connected understanding of whole numbers, fractions and units of measure.
Fluency. Would your students benefit from a thoughtful and strategic approach to developing fact and procedural fluency? One that is based on reasoning and practice rather than rote memorization? Join us!
Problem Solving. Word problems are especially challenging for our struggling students. We will explore progressions of problems that slowly, strategically, and systematically develop their reasoning and problem-solving skills.
We hope you will consider joining us for what promises to be an incredible day of learning, sharing, thinking, and re-thinking. We welcome the chance to work with you!
