Bush Institute’s Middle School Matters Program  \nHow Math Instruction and Math Interventions Can Improve Student Outcomes  \nNO. 6 APRIL 2017  \nMIDDLE SCHOOL MATTERS INSTITUTE  \nResearch-based principles and practices in math intervention research can be applied in the middle grades to improve student outcomes. These research-based strategies will enable middle grade students to develop important mathematics knowledge and skills to become algebra-ready.  \nTHE GEORGE W. BUSH INSTITUTE SEEKS WITH ITS MIDDLE SCHOOL MATTERS INITIATIVE TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF MIDDLE GRADE (GRADES 6–8) STUDENTS WHO ARE PREPARED TO COMPLETE HIGH SCHOOL AND EARN A  \nDIPLOMA .  \nThe Middle School Matters initiative at the George W. Bush Institute seeks to increase the number of middle grade students who are prepared for high school and postsecondary success. Middle School Matters’mission is to transform the middle grades by promoting high-quality research-based strategies and practices and to drive the development of policies that lead to better student outcomes. The two primary methods of achieving these goals are 1) to use solid research to develop practical tools and support for middle grade reform initiatives and 2) to promote the importance of research-based strategies and practices with individuals who make decisions for middle grade students.  \nThe ability to problem-solve, reason, and think analytically—knowledge and skills at the heart of mathematics—is essential for students’ success in the middle grades and beyond. This practice guide highlights several research-based practices to help middle grade students become more proficient at mathematical reasoning, computation, and problem solving, and ultimately, to become prepared for entry into algebra. School leaders and math teachers can use this information to compare and contrast the practices currently implemented at their school with those that have been validated by research and then identify ways to strengthen instruction and improve student success.  \n~~ PAGE 1 ~~  \nHow Math Instruction and Math Interventions Can Improve Student Outcomes  \nSuccess in math is important to all students; it provides them with college and career options in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. In the middle grades, students build upon the critical skills taught in elementary school and prepare for entry into algebra, which is considered a gateway to later achievement in school and career . Research-based principles and practices in math  \nintervention research can be applied in the middle grades to improve student outcomes . These research-based strategies will enable middle grade students to develop important mathematics knowledge and skills to become algebra-ready. What follows are a few questions school leaders might ask while providing instructional leadership, observing classrooms, or working with teacher s on effective math instruction or intervention, and how Middle School Matters’ math researchers would respond based on their knowledge of research in the area .  \nQUESTION:  \nAre there any school-wide practices we should adopt to enhance students’ understanding and application of mathematics?  \nYes! Mathematics is a foundational tool that can be used across many content areas (e.g. , integrated science, social studies, health), and students often find solving problems that are situated in real-world examples to be motivating and relevant to their experiences. Content area teachers should consider the mathematics relevant to their disciplines and expect students to use their mathematical knowledge and skills to better understand and communicate what they are learning in other content areas .  \nStudents can use their understanding of mathematics concepts and procedures to draw conclusions and propose solutions in content areas such as history, science, social studies, and economics. For example, data collected from observations of moving objects (e.g","cbCaimypn8uAZXlw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimypn8uAZXlw","pdf",196844,"English","# Math intervention goals for student outcomes\n## School-wide practices to enhance understanding and application\n## Numeracy and number sense for algebra readiness","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Middle School Matters math intervention guide?\",\"answer\":\"It presents research-based principles and practices to strengthen middle-grade instruction so students improve outcomes and become algebra-ready.\"},{\"question\":\"How can school-wide practices improve students’ understanding and application of mathematics?\",\"answer\":\"Use math as a foundational tool across subjects and design instruction around real-world problems that help students apply mathematical knowledge to understand and communicate learning in other areas.\"},{\"question\":\"How should math teachers help students enhance number sense and prepare for algebra?\",\"answer\":\"Focus on numeracy as flexibility with numbers, mental math, comparisons, conceptual understanding of number systems, and generalizations across systems so students can connect concrete understanding to algebraic reasoning.\"}]","How Math Instruction and Math Interventions Can Improve Student Outcomes - No. 6 - April 2017 | PDF",1792051390,25]
