Develop math-specific instruction strategies for teaching small groups in elementary school:

• Explore the benefits of small-group math activities and how these activities are unique compared to large-group instruction.
• Discover the teacher's and students' roles in small-group instruction and how teachers can help students develop the skills to fulfill their role.
• Learn how to apply the general tasks, questions, and evidence (TQE) process to small-group instruction in order to enhance student learning and improve your knowledge of teaching mathematics.
• View examples of small-group instruction, which provide both math intervention and math enrichment activities for different students.
