Scaffolding
Scaffolding math problems determined by student math readiness has really increased student engagement during math class. This process is really time consuming in that you must disaggregate your data to predetermine your 3 levels: the prerequisite, target, and enhanced. As you establish your groups, the objective is to make sure your math questions in your targeted group meet the state objective for that particular SOL. As indicated, this process is time consuming: however, the student will encounter much success in working math problems that are level appropriate. And the student will easily master that SOL objective.
