School Improvement Process: How the MTS Solution Will
Quickly Increase Math Performance!
The Math Teaching Series (MTS) can jump-start your school's progress toward achieving the goals of your team's School Improvement (SI) plan to significantly increase student math achievement. The series is being used successfully by schools as a primary and supplemental textbook for math instruction. MTS is also being used in schools for professional development for math educators to provide additional teaching support for improved instructional practices. Whether you use the book as a supplemental home/school link to provide a reference support to student and parents, or whether you use the books and training for professional development, your SI team will make great strides in promoting student understanding and performance in math by using the MTS series.
MTS for School Improvement (SI):
From the first day that the MTS Teaching Series (MTS) is used, students, parents and teachers will better learn and understand math. You can now order the series for immediate shipment for your SI team to review and use for professional development or to implement instructional strategies in the classroom to promote differentiated instruction efforts. The MTS books can be an effective resource to teachers because each book is written in a tutorial-style, step-by-step format that supports teachers who must provide targeted instruction to groups of students with a wide range of ability levels. In addition, teachers will find that using these books also promotes better understanding of math concepts from the many real-world applications that are incorporated throughout the book to promote relevancy for learning.
MTS and Parent Involvement:
Many SI teams struggle to find meaningful ways to involve and support parents in the improvement process. Purchasing the MTS books for students to use at home or in after-school support programs as an effective learning tool that can turn good SI results into great SI results! SI teams can decide to use funds dedicated to promoting parental involvement and purchase a MTS book for each family to use with their children as a homework help reference guide. The detailed table of contents and the tutorial-style format of the books help students and parents maximize learning at home--avoiding the tears and frustration that sometimes come when parents do not have the knowledge or materials to support their child's learning needs. Parents all over the nation are buying them for home support because they work!
MTS as an Effective Reference:
Your school library can use the MTS books as an effective reference guide for anyone including adult and community education programs. The Math Teaching Series is supported with an advocate owned consortium of professional parents who understand the school improvement process and have had experience providing the necessary support to SI teams. We have participated and still support schools that continue to look for more effective tools to increase math performance.
