Houston Academy 4 Tips to Address Math Summer Slide Try These 4 Tips to Combat Summer Slide! 1. Extend math learning beyond school hours Gear math problems towards students’ interest and activities to keep their attention. For example, assign a math project that involves collecting data or creating charts about a game they played. 2. Build growth mindset in math instruction To instill more positive beliefs about math, words need to be backed up by actions. If you tell students you value problem-solving more than correct answers, how will you show them this is true? One strategy is to play math games that encourage students to solve problems in different ways instead of focusing on correct answers. 3. Get students to read, read, read These tips are about math class, but math can’t be discussed and employed without language. Improving students’ reading ability will reap gains in math class, too, and in the long term, will help them catch up. 4. Differentiate learning This year, it will be critical to understand where students are when they enter your classroom, whether that’s a physical room or your group video chat. Not all students will have forgotten the same content from last year, so make a plan to ensure all students get the refresher they need instead of a whole-class review. “HMH August 27, 2020” Classroom Highlight About Mrs. Rita Wenger… Mrs. Wenger started teaching in 1984 as a Social Studies teacher in a private school.
