Have you ever sat in a classroom too bored to participate? I am the math specialist at an inner city public school in Illinois, and unfortunately this is a scene I see far too often. Last year my school was able to raise our Math ISAT (Illinois Standards Achievement Test) scores about 10 percentage points. Considering we cater to a small community with very little parent involvement and a small budget that does not allow for many extra programs, that is a tremendous gain! We did this by using a lot of direct instruction. If we want to continue moving forward, we need to start getting creative.
