Math - Peer Assisted Learning Strategies (PALS) Gr 2-6
Math Peer Assisted Learning Strategies (PALS): Methods for Grades 2-6 was designed for use with students in the elementary grades 2-6 and supports students development and mastery of key calculation concepts and applications representing the curriculum from grades 2-6. In PALS Math students work together to learn key concepts and procedures. Designed to supplement your regular classroom instruction, it will give your students a chance to practice what they are learning with a different look, different questions and novel problems. This course will cover the skills of computation for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in addition to key concepts and applications across grades 2-6, including area and perimeter, fractions, money, and ratios and probability and many more. Repeated scientific evaluations of PALS Math indicate that high-achieving, average-achieving and low-achieving students, as well as students with disabilities, make progress in a PALS classroom more than non-PALS classrooms. NOTE: To implement, participants must have a PALS Math program materials, so the course will prompt that process.
