Cristina Carrazza; Susan C. Levine – Grantee Submission, 2024
Children vary widely in their number knowledge by the time they enter kindergarten, and this variation is related to their future academic success. Although talk about number predicts children's early understanding of foundational number concepts, we know little about whether interventions can increase this talk nor about the types of number talk…

Thacker, Ian – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
Prompting people to estimate climate change numbers before showing them the true value can shift learners' attitudes and conceptions. Yet, interventions created for such a learning experience are not easily accessible to the general public. The purpose of this preregistered study was to address this research gap by developing and testing an openly…

Scalise, Nicole R.; Daubert, Emily N.; Ramani, Geetha B. – Journal of Experimental Education, 2020
Low-income preschoolers have lower average performance on measures of early numerical skills than middle-income children. The present study examined the effectiveness of numerical card games in improving children's numerical and executive functioning skills. Low-income preschoolers (N = 76) were randomly assigned to play a numerical magnitude…

Lange, Alissa A.; Brenneman, Kimberly; Sareh, Narges – Early Education and Development, 2021
Research Findings: This study evaluated the effects of an early mathematics intervention designed to engage preschool children, their teachers, and their families in an interactive mathematics game. Previous research shows that playing this specific type of linear board game results in increased numerical skills and understanding in young children…

Ben Clarke; Christian T. Doabler; Keith Smolkowski; Evangeline Kurtz-Nelson; Hank Fien; Scott K. Baker; Derek Kosty – Grantee Submission, 2016
This study examined the efficacy of a kindergarten mathematics intervention program, ROOTS, focused on developing whole-number understanding in the areas of counting and cardinality and operations and algebraic thinking for students at risk in mathematics. The study utilized a randomized block design with students within classrooms randomly…

Fuchs, Lynn S.; Powell, Sarah R.; Seethaler, Pamela M.; Cirino, Paul T.; Fletcher, Jack M.; Fuchs, Douglas; Hamlett, Carol L. – Learning and Individual Differences, 2010
The primary purpose of this study was to assess the effects of strategic counting instruction, with and without deliberate practice with those counting strategies, on number combination (NC) skill among students with mathematics difficulties (MD). Students (n = 150) were stratified on MD status (i.e., MD alone versus MD with reading difficulty)…

Knight, Michael E. – 1979
This program was designed to improve mathematics achievement by directing intervention toward diagnosed deficiencies in number concepts, computational skills, relationships among measures, and problem solving. Four hundred and twenty second through eighth grade students participated in the program. Math lab rooms were established in each of seven…
