Geek Out Breakfast 2017 - Chris Rush - Solving the Swiss Cheese Problem
This document discusses an approach to addressing "swiss cheese" skill gaps in below grade level students entering 7th grade. It involves identifying core 7th grade target skills and then determining the specific skill gaps for each student related to those targets. Teachers focus on filling in each gap by working up from the student's current level to the 7th grade target, one target at a time. This results in a unique multi-grade learning plan for each student. A study found this approach helped below grade level students achieve learning growth 1.8 times the national average, equivalent to an extra 8 months of learning.
Teaching tips 1
Students can learn mathematics through various hands-on activities like practicing skills independently, discussing concepts with peers, playing games, and solving puzzles and problems. Mathematics is important because it helps organize our understanding of the world and enables communication, while also being enjoyable to learn. Effective mathematics teaching uses a variety of methods, including teacher explanation, practice, games, practical work, puzzles, and investigation, to motivate students and improve their learning skills.

FALL 2016 AATM Journal
This article presents a four-step approach for teaching preschoolers to solve word problems. The steps are: 1) Listen to a story and represent it with objects. 2) Identify a picture representing the story. 3) Use picture information to answer a math question from the story. 4) Listen to countable object stories and count to complete them. The goal is to introduce problem solving concepts like representing, connecting representations, and solving before students can read, by leveraging their developing senses and understanding through stories, objects, and pictures. Introducing problem solving at a young age through concrete experiences can help later math success.
