Remedial Math
In math, each concept builds upon previous knowledge, creating a continuum of learning. When a student has not fully mastered a foundational concept, they may struggle to grasp subsequent material. Remediation is designed to address these gaps, helping the student regain their footing and progress effectively through the math continuum.
Students experiencing difficulties in math often face significant stress and anxiety due to gaps in foundational skills. These gaps can hinder their ability to form and retain crucial connections necessary for mathematical understanding and performance. Addressing these developmental needs is essential for reducing anxiety and promoting a more effective learning experience.
A Comprehensive Treatment Plan Will Include:
- Understanding the specific cognitive processes that support mathematical learning, allowing for targeted intervention.
- Ongoing Diagnostic Evaluation: Continuously assessing cognitive development to identify strengths and areas needing further enhancement.
- Systematic, Multisensory Instruction: Employing incremental, structured methods that integrate cognitive development into every lesson and activity, ensuring a holistic approach to learning.
- Metacognitive Strategy Development: Implementing comprehensive metacognitive strategies to foster mindfulness and promote the transfer of skills from therapy sessions to classroom work and independent tasks.
- Collaborative Communication: Maintaining ongoing communication with classroom teachers, schools, and families to monitor progress and ensure alignment with educational goals.
- Curriculum and Test Preparation: Preparing students by frontloading a wide range of math texts used in public and private schools, including content specific to standardized tests.
- A Safe, Comfortable Space: Where students engage in prescriptive activities that directly address the goals and objectives set by our interdisciplinary team.
Through consistent, successful experiences, students will develop self-efficacy, trust in their cognitive abilities, and become independent, confident learners.
