Karp, K., Fennell, F., Kobett, B., Andrews, D. Knighten, L. & Suh, J. (In press for September 2025) Proactive Mathematics Interventions: Priming for Success through Engaging Tasks and Purposeful Design for Grades 2-5. Corwin.

NCTM Annual Preconference Institute – Wednesday, October 15, 2025
Developing Proactive Interventions that Engage – Priming Students for Success Grades 1-5
This all-day institute focuses on planning and implementing proactive interventions for students with disabilities or significant learning gaps in grades 1-5. Using evidence-based strategies such as concrete/semi-concrete/abstract (CSA), participants will learn how to help students develop a balanced understanding of mathematics concepts and skills with a focus on number and operations and algebraic thinking. A new model called Priming will be shared and participants will experience classroom-tested tasks that create robust learning opportunities and avoid the “teaching as telling” approach. Resources and instructional strategies shared will support lasting learning by building from students’ strengths and avoiding “rules that expire.”
