"This practical and thought-provoking book offers time-saving strategies essential for every teacher in every discipline. The numerous self-assessments demonstrate that the best formative assessments are not merely given "to" students but are an interactive learning experience involving students, teachers, and professional colleagues."
-Douglas B. Reeves, Founder
The Leadership and Learning Center
"This book provides a wealth of information for teachers and mathematics leaders to consider when implementing intervention models, RTI programs, and differentiated instruction for low achievers through high achievers."
-Don S. Balka, Professor Emeritus
St. Mary's College, Notre Dame, IN
"Many of the seemingly abstruse or vague concepts-such as differentiated instruction-come alive in the numerous vignettes. Included are many examples of ways to quickly assess relevant student background knowledge before teaching a new topic and how to use this information for tiered instruction following an RTI (Response to Intervention) model."
-From the foreword by Russel Gersten
Director, Instructional Research Group & Professor Emeritus, University of Oregon
