All READers are invited to take a journey in mathematics with Penn State professor and The WI faculty member, Paul Riccomini, PhD. Dr. Riccomini and Danielle discuss the language of math with the underlying principle – if kids don’t understand the language of instruction, they’re not going to be able to learn to their potential. Dr. Riccomini explains certain markers of why children may experience challenges in math, when difficulties persist, and scaffolds and instructional practices to support struggling mathematicians. At the end of the episode, Dr. Riccomini answers “crowdsource” questions from adults READers including how parents/ guardians can support kids at home, and he takes on the curiosity of school-aged students by answering their top questions. Dr. Riccomini invites all listeners into a math class – listen closely for the importance of its numbers AND its mathematical language.
