Teaching Elementary Mathematics Using Alternative Strategies and Modalities Summer- 2013
This interactive course features innovative methods to manipulate numbers using minimum language demands.
Students perform the four basic operations of whole numbers, fractions, percentages, and elementary algebraic concepts using concrete manipulatives, graphic organizers, gross motor/kinesthetic processing, and visual imagery techniques. After problems are solved through alternative modalities, language is used to describe and document the solution process. Thematic, language-based instruction will be presented in a hands-on format which aids student comprehension by integrating concepts and procedures with related word problems through experiential learning. Participants will explore several thematic units and will receive the necessary guidance and materials to adapt one for their own use. While these methods are essential for individuals with auditory processing issues and/or executive function disorders, all students can benefit from these strategies.
