Everyone Can Count: RtI/MTSS to Improve Math Proficiency for All Learners
Did you know that math proficiency is a powerful predictor of college enrollment and completion? Too many children struggle to master important math skills, closing doors along the path to long-term school and career success. This session will provide a brief overview of key elements of effective core mathematics instruction, describe how to collect and interpret screening data, and give attendees the “how to” in implementing and sustaining classwide mathematics intervention. Videos and free web-based resources will be shared.
In conjunction with the Human Development Center, Data-Based Conferences will be bringing a team of national experts to back to New Orleans on Thursday and Friday, April 12th and 13th, 2018. This conference will be the 4th in New Orleans, where in previous years 300-plus educators from across the country have come to learn about pragmatic and research-based practices within a Multi-Tier System of Supports (MTSS) and Response to Intervention (RTI). This year promises expansions of last year’s MTSS content with particular attention to trauma-related mental health interventions, dyslexia, diversity in team building, and severe disruptive behavior.
