Multisensory Math Professional Learning

Hyde Park Day School, which specializes in the education of bright children with learning disabilities, has developed a research-based, innovative and effective curriculum for students with a range of learning disabilities. In order to share our expertise with the larger LD community, we created the Joanne Steinback Educator Training Institute, offering professional education in a variety of curricular areas, including Marilyn Zecher’s Multisensory Math Approach™.

Our Instructional Coaches recently gave a presentation on Marilyn Zecher’s Multisensory Math Approach™ in Oklahoma City. Some of the comments received included:

I loved the actual hands on practice!

Great information that I will start using in the classroom right away. Great personalities. I enjoyed it.

I loved the presenters and could tell they were very knowledgeable. It was wonderful and I’d love to do it again!

Marilyn Zecher’s Multisensory Math Approach™ builds on the multisensory tradition and uses Orton-Gillingham instructional strategies, which are supported by evidence from the What Works Clearinghouse, recommendations from the NCTM, neuroscience, and best practices in mathematics education. It includes evidence-based strategies we use to meet the needs of all students, not just those with special needs. It is designed for use in inclusion classrooms, small group instruction, one-on-one tutoring, or in homeschool classrooms. Its focus is on the core foundational concepts, the Big Ideas in math, providing a firm foundation, or providing intervention to help students catch up to keep up.

Participants will receive the full course manual with articles, detailed explanations of major concepts, sample worksheets, graphic organizers, and reference materials. They will also receive access to a live recording of the workshop for a limited time.
