“The essence of math is not to make simple things complicated, but to make complicated things simple.” — Stan Gudder
At Numeracy Consultants, we're dedicated to transforming math intervention curriculum by embracing excellence, innovation, and inclusivity. Our goal is to equip educators with cutting-edge, research-backed strategies and systematic instruction, all while emphasizing the importance of mathematical language. Through our tailored math intervention programs, we're committed to ensuring that every student has the chance to thrive in mathematics. With comprehensive support and evidence-based instructional methods, we strive to nurture a profound understanding of mathematical concepts and ignite a passion for learning.
Our instructional approach for each of our programs is intricately designed around the research-based CRA (Concrete-Representational-Abstract) instruction model. This method provides a structured framework for teaching mathematical concepts using concrete materials, visual representations, and abstract symbols. Additionally, we integrate error analysis as a pivotal component of our programs. After administering diagnostic assessments aligned with educational standards, we support teachers in analyzing errors from our standards-based assessments. These errors serve as essential indicators, meticulously guiding our instructional decisions with precision.
A review conducted by Numeracy Consultants examined research in critical areas such as forward counting, backward counting, addition and subtraction strategies, place value, numeral identification, and part-whole relationships. The consensus drawn from this review underscores the significance of these domains in numeracy development.
We offer four math intervention programs: the Primary Numeracy Intervention Program (Kdg-3rd), the Multiplicative Thinking Program (3rd - 5th), the Word Problem Intervention Program (K-5), and the Fractional Reasoning Program (3rd - 6th). Each program is thoughtfully designed to address specific grade levels and mathematical concepts, ensuring a targeted and effective intervention. Each of the four programs provides complimentary online training webinars, free assessments, comprehensive workbooks, frameworks, customizable lesson plan templates, printables, and an extensive array of over 150 supplementary resources to bolster the effectiveness of the programs. Additionally, users receive introductory access to select learning libraries, providing valuable resources to support their journey.
We understand that teachers require robust support for a successful intervention program, regardless of whether they implement a Response to Intervention (RTI) model or follow a Multi-Tier Systems of Support (MTSS) framework. That's why our math intervention programs are carefully designed to cater to the needs of tier 1, tier 2, and tier 3 interventions. We provide the resources and materials necessary for each tier, empowering teachers to deliver targeted instruction and support at every level.
A critical component of our instructional approach is task analysis, a process that deconstructs each concept into smaller, easily teachable skills. By breaking down complex ideas into manageable components, we facilitate the construction of a robust numeracy foundation. This systematic approach ensures that students not only grasp individual skills but also comprehend their interconnectedness, fostering a deep understanding of mathematics.
