This summer, Wise Owl will offer week-long intensives to small groups of 3 to teach strategies for Math computations. Working in small groups will allow the students to receive frequent individual feedback and participation. The instruction will present aspects of Making Math Real by David Berg to teach multiplication and division facts. This program presents information in a structured, simultaneous multisensory format with a visual reference style for faster recall and retention. One of the things we find most effective about this approach is the way that it shows students the connections between multiplication and division facts, and then relates this to fractions. It is a comprehensive approach that student's find very successful and rewarding.
For addition/subtraction based groups, instruction will utilize Touch Math, a system that allows students to count the facts that they don't have memorized more efficiently than using their fingers. Memory of facts will focus on doubles (and related facts), combinations of 10, and strategies for adding/subtracting with 9.
Instruction for all groups will go at a pace that is reasonable for the group. So, although a plan for the work to be covered is identified, there may be additional or less information covered depending on the successful acquisition of skills by the students.
