What are two strategies for planning mathematics
lessons for all learners? - 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
Which 2 strategies could be part of a lesson plan
that uses a think-aloud strategy rather than peer-
assisted learning? - answer 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.
Which two statements describe teaching for all

to make tasks more relevant to students with
varied backgrounds.
2. The teacher scaffolds tasks to provide access to
higher-level thinking for students.
Which two statements describe learning difficulties
that students from diverse groups may encounter?
- answer 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.
, A third grade class has moderate learning
disabilities.
Which instructional strategy would help the
teacher provide equitable learning opportunities
for this diverse class? - answer Teach multiple
representations of ideas for one problem at a time
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? - answer 1. Help transitioning from a
problem to a particular representation
2. Opportunities to discuss problems and ideas
with other students
The objective of a lesson is for students to solve

Although able to solve multi-digit multiplication
problems, one student struggles to solve word
problems.
