The document discusses Miamisburg City Schools' gifted math intervention program. It provides the names and schools of the gifted intervention specialists. The program focuses on math and identifies gifted students based on test scores of 120 or above on certain standardized tests. It works by having students attend daily math classes taught by a gifted intervention specialist. Research shows that mathematically gifted students learn basic skills rapidly and can reason and solve problems quickly. The math curriculum focuses on greater depth, complexity, discovery-based learning through open-ended problems and interdisciplinary connections. Classes use differentiation, a faster pace and compacting curriculum. Field trips to educational locations are also provided. Contact information and websites for more information are listed at the end.

The literacy program at the author's school lacks an assessment strategy and clear goals for data collection. Teachers do not have ownership over the assessment process and the data is not used to improve instruction. Some administrators and teachers are skeptical of data-driven programs because the data is collected by others and is difficult to understand. Finally, some view standardized tests as the primary measure of literacy and student performance.
The author proposes several strategies to monitor the literacy program, including developing a shared understanding of literacy among teachers, identifying strengths and weaknesses in the curriculum, establishing clear goals for data collection, and ensuring teachers can analyze and apply the data to improve instruction. Regular assessment of student engagement and qualitative data collection can also provide useful information about individual studentsMr. Lingley's Math Syllabus

This study examined the impact of Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences (MI) on third grade students' mastery of basic math skills. Two classrooms participated - one used traditional teaching methods while the other incorporated MI strategies. Students in the MI classroom showed greater improvement in math fact speed and accuracy after two weeks compared to the traditional classroom. Educator observations also found students in the MI classroom were more engaged. However, the study was limited in duration and longer research is needed to determine MI's impact on retention of math skills over subsequent years of schooling.Math Skills

Two classrooms participated - one used traditional teaching methods while the other incorporated MI strategies. Pre- and post-tests showed that while the traditional classroom did not improve in speed or accuracy with addition and multiplication facts, the MI classroom demonstrated growth in both areas. Educator observations also indicated that MI lessons kept students more engaged and helped them memorize facts faster. However, the study was limited to only two weeks, so longer-term impacts on retention remain unknown.Diversity protfolio

It provides examples and instructions for each goal such as how to set up and solve word problems using open sentences, the process for rounding numbers to certain places, how to make magnitude estimates before calculating products, and methods for multiplying multi-digit numbers and decimals while keeping place value aligned.Learning Modalities
Learning ModalitiesRenegarmath
油
There are three main learning modalities: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Visual learners learn best by seeing things like pictures and diagrams. Around 60% of people are visual learners. Auditory learners learn best by listening and make up about 30% of people. Kinesthetic learners learn best through physical experiences like doing and touching, and they comprise around 10% of the population. Children tend to be kinesthetic learners early on but may become more visual or auditory as they age into elementary school.Unit 1 Number Theory (5th Grade)
