a doable approach to teaching with learning differences in mind : grades 6-12

"Nationally recognized mathematics differentiation expert Nanci N. Smith debunks the myths, revealing what differentiation is and isn't. In this ... book, Smith reveals a practical approach to teaching for real learning differences.... Theory-lite and practice-heavy, this book shows how to maintain order and sanity while helping your students know, understand, and even enjoy doing mathematics.... Busy secondary mathematics teachers, coaches, and teacher teams will learn to provide practical structures for assessing how each of your students learns and processes mathematics concepts; design, implement, manage, and formatively assess and respond to learning in a differentiated classroom; plan specific, standards-aligned differentiated lessons, activities, and assessments; adjust current instructional materials and program resources to better meet students' needs."--Page [4] of cover

Start up: why knowing and addressing students' learning differences is critical -- Find out: strategies for determining who each of your students is as a mathematics learner -- Teach up: making sense of rigorous mathematical content -- Step up: how to make proactive planning decisions that deepen thinking -- Set it up: establishing the right tone to make differentiation doable -- Power on: mastering and modeling daily routines for achievement all year -- Step back: tools for assessing and evaluating in a differentiated classroom -- Close up: a week in the life of a differentiated mathematics classroom
