New Coach Focuses on Practicing
the Mathematics Skills
Key for the FCAT!
Focus on FCAT Mathematics, Levels C, E, H
by Jerome Kaplan, Ph. D.
Designed especially for students who need extra help, this new instructional
Coach series provides a comprehensive review and ample practice of the
key mathematics skills and concepts covered by the Florida Sunshine State
Standards. The perfect supplement to the FCAT Mathematics Coach, these
grade-specific student texts get your students ready to succeed on the
mathematics portion of the FCAT!
Each book is organized around the Math Strands required at each grade
level. A series of lessons providing clearly written instruction for
all content topics comprise the first section of these student texts.
Arranged in order of complexity, from easier to more difficult, the lessons
contain concise mini-lessons highlighting the important role of problem
solving in the curriculum. Graded practice questions conclude each mini-lesson,
reinforcing student understanding. A review section follows every Strand
and Substrand. A set of open-ended questions is included at the end of
every content topic.
Your students get to practice, practice, practice the basic skills crucial
to student achievement in mathematics in the second part of these Coach
books. A cumulative practice examining all the covered topics and two
practice tests closely modeled after the actual FCAT complete these high
impact student texts.
Created to be individualized programs of remedial teaching, these Coach
books are the perfect aid for teachers diagnosing problems and helping
students to practice in the specific areas in which they need the most
help.
Focus on FCAT Mathematics is the best way
available to make sure all your students are test-ready and
confident – especially
those who are at-risk and need extra practice!
