The Science of Reading in 6-12 Math Instruction: Teaching for Accessibility & Understanding
đź“Ł Attention 6th-12th Grade Math Teachers! đź“Ł
Math isn’t just numbers—it’s language, reasoning, and structured thinking. If students can’t read fluently, decode math-specific vocabulary, or comprehend multi-step problems, they will struggle to access grade-level math content.
💡 Join Educate and Rankin County School District’s own math expert, Katie Case, for a 90-minute deep dive into integrating the Science of Reading into math instruction. We’ll focus on evidence-based strategies to improve students’ ability to read, write, and think mathematically—ensuring all learners can engage with complex math concepts.
Why This Matters for Math Teachers:
🚨 Students struggle in math—not because they don’t know the numbers, but because they can’t process the language.
đź“– Math texts, word problems, and instructions require reading fluency, vocabulary knowledge, and comprehension strategies.
đź“Š The Science of Reading provides proven techniques to make math more accessible, leading to higher achievement.
What You’ll Learn:
✔ How the Science of Reading Applies to Math – The connection between decoding, syntax, and comprehension in mathematical reasoning.
✔ Building Math-Specific Vocabulary – Strategies to explicitly teach and reinforce academic language and key math terms.
✔ Improving Word Problem Comprehension – How to help students break down multi-step problems, analyze instructions, and determine what’s being asked.
