VERIFIED ANSWER
1. Provide graphic organizers and tables for students to organize their work
2. Include think-pair-share opportunities for students to discuss math concepts -
CORRECT ANSWER What are two strategies for planning mathematics lessons for
all learners?
1. The teacher discusses alternative methods of solving the problem.
2. The teacher talks through the steps of a solution, identifying the reasoning at
each step. - CORRECT ANSWER Which 2 strategies could be part of a lesson plan
that uses a think-aloud strategy rather than peer-assisted learning?
1. The teacher looks for ways to make tasks more relevant to students with varied
backgrounds.
2. The teacher scaffolds tasks to provide access to higher-level thinking for
students. - CORRECT ANSWER Which two statements describe teaching for all
students?
1. Students from other countries often solve problems or illustrate concepts
differently.
,2.Students who are English Language Learners (ELL) require more time to solve
problems. - CORRECT ANSWER Which two statements describe learning difficulties
that students from diverse groups may encounter?
Teach multiple representations of ideas for one problem at a time - CORRECT
ANSWER A third grade class has moderate learning disabilities.
Which instructional strategy would help the teacher provide equitable learning
opportunities for this diverse class?
1. Help transitioning from a problem to a particular representation
2. Opportunities to discuss problems and ideas with other students - CORRECT
ANSWER A first-grade class includes students who lack motivation and students
with mild learning disabilities.
Which two instructional strategies would meet the needs of this group of students
as they study math?
1. The student solves the multi-digit multiplication problems. The teacher models
the problem-solving process for the word problem, and then prompts and
questions the student.
2. The student solves word problems involving the multiplication of multi-digit
numbers. The student uses a calculator to multiply the numbers. - CORRECT
ANSWER The objective of a lesson is for students to solve word problems involving
the multiplication of multi-digit numbers.
, Although able to solve multi-digit multiplication problems, one student struggles
to solve word problems.
How can this student's needs be accommodated?
The lesson effectively addresses the needs of all students. The complexity of the
tasks for the different groups of students is based on ability. - CORRECT ANSWER A
teacher has students with special needs and students with high ability in class.
The teacher grouped the students by ability level for a lesson on creating pie
graphs to represent data.
In the lesson, the teacher is prepared to provide step-by-step instructions for the
students with special needs about how to construct a pie graph. The teacher has
also planned to engage the high-ability students in constructing a survey to gather
data, and creating a pie graph to summarize the data.
How effectively does this lesson plan address the needs of all students?
1. The low-ability group receives extra support to learn to measure angles with a
protractor.
2. Students with special needs use a protractor to measure fewer angles than the
other students. - CORRECT ANSWER The objective of a lesson is for students to
learn to measure angles with a protractor. The teacher has grouped the students
by ability.
All students are given a protractor and a worksheet with pictures of many
different angles. Groups of students work together to develop strategies for
