In this episode of Tier 1 Interventions, hosts Jonily Zupancic and Cheri Dotterer discuss the disconnect between visual perception and math skills in young learners. They explore using visual aids like dots and pegboards to assess and improve math understanding. The hosts also delve into the concepts of false positives and false negatives in math assessments, emphasizing the importance of understanding the underlying reasons behind a student's performance. Join them as they share insights from cognitive science and neuroscience to help educators better support their students' mathematical development.
