MENAGERIES OF MATHEMATICS:

Strategies for Middle School Classrooms with Diverse Learners

If your classroom is a collection of students with widely varying sets of skills, experiences, and challenges,

you need a well-stocked toolbox of strategies. Come refine old tools and build new ones to help make

mathematics accessible to all.

Topics include:

• Operating within the Multi-tiered Systems of Support (UMTSS)

• Differentiating tasks such as Tilted Squares and Equation Solving

• Implementing evidence-based instructional practices for mathematics understanding
