Megan Rojo; Sarah G. King; Jenna Gersib; Christian T. Doabler – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2025
Competence with rational numbers is essential for mathematics proficiency in secondary mathematics. However, many students struggle with rational number concepts, and students with mathematics difficulties struggle even more. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an intervention that incorporated the use of explicit instruction…

Emily Bouck; Mary Bouck; Rubia D. Anderson – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2025
Fractions are an important concept used throughout advanced mathematical ideas and everyday life. Students need a solid understanding of fraction concepts, such as magnitude, equivalence, and operations. However, many students, including students with learning disabilities (LD) in mathematics, struggle with fractions. In this article, the use of…

Bundock, Kaitlin; Callan, Gregory L.; Longhurst, David; Rolf, Kristen R.; Benney, Chandler M.; McClain, Maryellen Brunson – Insights into Learning Disabilities, 2021
Research on mathematics interventions for college students with learning disabilities (LD) is sparse, yet mathematics is critical for post-secondary success. Prior research indicates that many effective strategies for teaching mathematics to secondary students with LD (e.g., manipulatives and cognitive strategies) can also improve the mathematics…

Kingsdorf, Sheri; Krawec, Jennifer – Cogent Education, 2016
Though research on effective instruction in math word problem solving is prominent at the middle and secondary levels, much less work has been done in elementary grades. In this article, we review the research on varied problem-solving instructional interventions at the third-grade level for students across ability levels. Third grade was chosen…
