Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine principals’ and teachers’ perceptions of flexible ability grouping when used for students with exceptional mathematical promise in third and fourth-grade mathematics classes. Flexible grouping allows educators to match students’ readiness levels with instruction and to apply proper content and pacing. This study extended previous research on grouping practices and investigated flexible grouping in relation to mathematics instruction, both within-class ability grouping and between- or cross-class ability grouping. The type of research design was an explanatory sequential mixed methods approach, combining quantitative survey and qualitative interview data. The survey used a Likert-type rating scale and contained 23 questions. Participants reflected a purposeful sampling method, and included 86 elementary educators, consisting of 77 teachers and nine principals from five suburban school districts in Pennsylvania. After survey completion, a small group of 10 participants engaged in one-on-one interviews. Interviewees included two principals and eight teachers. Principals and teachers provided information about perceived effects of flexible grouping for students with exceptional mathematical promise, advantages and disadvantages of this practice, and planning and implementation aspects needed for successful delivery. Principals’ and teachers’ perceptions revealed significant results, including the beneficial effects of flexible grouping on academic performance and social and emotional behaviors for students with exceptional mathematical promise. Survey and interview data indicated that the advantages of flexible grouping as an instructional practice for students with exceptional mathematical promise outweighed the disadvantages. Some of the main advantages that surfaced in this study included high levels of student engagement, opportunities for higher level thinking, faster pacing of curriculum, and student preferences for working with peers of similar readiness and ability levels. Finally, this study explored aspects of planning and implementation necessary for flexible grouping at the elementary level. Results of qualitative data collection also revealed a need for meaningful professional development and training as well as sufficient teacher planning time through professional learning communities or grade-level meetings. Flexible grouping in mathematics should be considered a valuable and effective tool in meeting the needs of students, especially students with exceptional mathematical promise.

Download or read book The Effects of Flexible Ability Grouping on Mathematics Improvement and Self-concepts in the Intermediate Grades written by Sara Curran and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research investigated the effects of the ability grouping method of between-classroom flexible grouping on intermediate elementary students' mathematical concept improvement and academic self-concepts. This ability grouping method involved relocating students among classrooms within a grade level, based on ability, for mathematics instruction. Pretests, given prior to each mathematics unit, determined students' placements for each unit of study, resulting in the flexible grouping of students into groups throughout the course of the school year. The treatment group, implementing between-classroom flexible grouping for mathematics instruction, consisted of 140 fourth and fifth grade students at two elementary schools. The comparison group, utilizing heterogeneous classrooms, included 142 fourth and fifth grade students at one elementary school. All three schools were situated within one suburban Chicago school district. A quasi-experimental, quantitative research design was employed to collect data. The STAR Math test was administered in the fall (pretest) and in the spring (posttest) of the school year to ascertain mathematical concept improvement. The School Subjects and Mathematics subscales of the Self-Description Questionnaire I were administered to determine students' general academic self-concepts and mathematics self- concepts. At the fourth grade level, the treatment group reported higher mathematical concept improvement, academic self-concepts, and mathematics self-concepts than the comparison group. However, a statistically significant difference was only found for academic self-concepts. At the fifth grade level, the comparison group achieved higher mathematical concept improvement and academic self-concepts. The treatment group attained higher mathematics self-concepts. No statistical significance was determined. When fourth and fifth grades were combined, the treatment group outperformed the comparison group for mathematical concept improvement, academic self-concepts, and mathematics self-concepts. Statistical significance was not attained. In addition, this study attempted to confirm the assertions of Marsh's Big-Fish-Little-Pond Effect. A positive correlation between mathematical ability levels and mathematics self-concepts was noted for all subgroups. A smaller range of mathematics self-concept means across ability levels was evident for the treatment group. The findings of this research suggest between-classroom flexible grouping may benefit intermediate elementary students, but more research is necessary to fully gauge its effects.

Download or read book Becoming a High Expectation Teacher written by Christine Rubie-Davies and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-13 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We constantly hear cries from politicians for teachers to have high expectations. But what this means in practical terms is never spelled out. Simply deciding that as a teacher you will expect all your students to achieve more than other classes you have taught in the same school, is not going to translate automatically into enhanced achievement for students. Becoming a High Expectation Teacher is a book that every education student, training or practising teacher, should read. It details the beliefs and practices of high expectation teachers – teachers who have high expectations for all their students – and provides practical examples for teachers of how to change classrooms into ones in which all students are expected to learn at much higher levels than teachers may previously have thought possible. It shows how student achievement can be raised by providing both research evidence and practical examples. This book is based on the first ever intervention study in the teacher expectation area, designed to change teachers’ expectations through introducing them to the beliefs and practices of high expectation teachers. A holistic view of the classroom is emphasised whereby both the instructional and socio-emotional aspects of the classroom are considered if teachers are to increase student achievement. There is a focus on high expectation teachers, those who have high expectations for all students, and a close examination of what it is that these teachers do in their classrooms that mean that their students make very large learning gains each year. Becoming a High Expectation Teacher explores three key areas in which what high expectation teachers do differs substantially from what other teachers do: the way they group students for learning, the way they create a caring classroom community, and the way in which they use goalsetting to motivate students, to promote student autonomy and to promote mastery learning. Areas covered include:- Formation of teacher expectations Teacher personality and expectation Ability grouping and goal setting Enhancing class climate Sustaining high expectations for students Becoming a High Expectation Teacher is an essential read for any researcher, student, trainee or practicing teacher who cares passionately about the teacher-student relationship and about raising expectations and student achievement.

Book excerpt: First published in 1995 as How to Differentiate Instruction in Mixed-Ability Classrooms, this new edition reflects evolving best practices, practitioners' experience, and Tomlinson's ongoing thinking about how to help all students access high-quality curriculum; engage in meaningful learning experiences; and feel safe and valued in their school. Written as a practical guide for teachers, this expanded 3rd edition of Carol Ann Tomlinson's groundbreaking work covers the fundamentals of differentiation and provides additional guidelines and new strategies for how to go about it. You'll learn What differentiation is and why it's essential How to set up the flexible and supportive learning environment that promotes success How to manage a differentiated classroom How to plan lessons differentiated by readiness, interest, and learning profile How to differentiate content, process, and products How to prepare students, parents, and yourself for the challenge of differentiation We differentiate instruction to honor the reality of the students we teach. They are energetic and outgoing. They are quiet and curious. They are confident and self-doubting. They are interested in a thousand things and deeply immersed in a particular topic. They are academically advanced and "kids in the middle" and struggling due to cognitive, emotional, economic, or sociological challenges. More of them than ever speak a different language at home. They learn at different rates and in different ways. And they all come together in our academically diverse classrooms.

Strengths-Based Teaching and Learning in Mathematics: 5 Teaching Turnarounds for Grades K- 6 goes beyond simply providing information by sharing a pathway for changing practice. . . Focusing on our students’ strengths should be routine and can be lost in the day-to-day teaching demands. A teacher using these approaches can change the trajectory of students’ lives forever. All teachers need this resource! Connie S. Schrock Emporia State University National Council of Supervisors of Mathematics President, 2017-2019 NEW COVID RESOURCES ADDED: A Parent’s Toolkit to Strengths-Based Learning in Math is now available on the book’s companion website to support families engaged in math learning at home. This toolkit provides a variety of home-based activities and games for families to engage in together. Your game plan for unlocking mathematics by focusing on students’ strengths. We often evaluate student thinking and their work from a deficit point of view, particularly in mathematics, where many teachers have been taught that their role is to diagnose and eradicate students’ misconceptions. But what if instead of focusing on what students don’t know or haven’t mastered, we identify their mathematical strengths and build next instructional steps on students’ points of power? Beth McCord Kobett and Karen S. Karp answer this question and others by highlighting five key teaching turnarounds for improving students’ mathematics learning: identify teaching strengths, discover and leverage students’ strengths, design instruction from a strengths-based perspective, help students identify their points of power, and promote strengths in the school community and at home. Each chapter provides opportunities to stop and consider current practice, reflect, and transfer practice while also sharing · Downloadable resources, activities, and tools · Examples of student work within Grades K–6 · Real teachers’ notes and reflections for discussion It’s time to turn around our approach to mathematics instruction, end deficit thinking, and nurture each student’s mathematical strengths by emphasizing what makes them each unique and powerful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Want to make your instruction more equitable and effective, more interesting, and more fun? It's time to try flexible grouping. Unlike traditional grouping, which typically puts like with like or combines students without regard to the best way to promote their individual growth, flexible grouping is both purposeful and fluid, regularly combining and recombining different students in different ways to pursue a wide range of academic and affective goals. In this comprehensive guide to flexible grouping, author Kristina J. Doubet shares a staged implementation approach that takes students from simple partner set-ups designed to build cooperative skills to complex structures ideal for interest and readiness-informed academic exploration. She covers the key factors to consider when forming groups and highlights how this approach to organizing learning can help you disrupt rigid tracking, deliver targeted instruction, connect to student interests, boost collaboration, and build community. Focused, practical, and written for teachers of all subjects and grade levels, The Flexibly Grouped Classroom provides * Dozens of strategies to expand your instructional repertoire, along with links to additional models and resources; * Guidance on setting the tone and expectations for group tasks, ideas for student role distribution, and tips for monitoring progress, noise, and time; * A planning template and sample grouping plans for an elementary and secondary classroom; and * Specific troubleshooting advice to help you navigate common complications. Choosing to make your classroom a flexibly grouped one means positioning every student to learn better—without feeling superior or inferior, without being overburdened or underchallenged—and to discover for themselves how much farther they can go together than they ever could alone.
