A clear and simple system for developing math intervention plans that work.
Ready to implement a plan that gets to the root of your students' math needs? You're in the right place!
You’re already doing the work — pulling small groups, reteaching skills, trying to find the right starting point for each student. But when your plans are pieced together from a dozen different places, it’s hard to know if they’re actually working — or where to go next.
Classroom Teacher
You’re working with 1st–4th grade students who need more — more support, more clarity, more time. You know small group instruction matters, but when you look at your most struggling learners, you’re not always sure where to begin. You want a plan that’s clear, strategic, and actually moves students forward.
Math Interventionist
You’re supporting a wide range of students with very different needs — and every article or training you read makes it sound like everything is urgent. You’re ready for a framework that helps you focus, prioritize, and build a path that actually works.
Special Education Teacher
Your students are working across so many layers — filling conceptual gaps, building number sense, developing fact fluency — and no single curriculum addresses all of it. You’re ready for a system that helps you bring it all together in one cohesive plan.
Have confidence in your math intervention strategy!
Math Intervention Uncomplicated gives you a clear understanding of what makes intervention effective — and helps you build a plan that actually works in real classrooms.
By the end of the course, you’ll know how to develop a math intervention plan for any skill — from start to finish — using a framework that supports deep understanding and student growth.
Whether or not you’ve used the CRA progression before, we’ll walk through how to apply it in a way that’s flexible, practical, and responsive to your students.
You’ll learn how to layer number sense-building strategies into your instruction — so you’re not stopping to “remediate” number sense, but actively building it every day.
You’ll also learn how to develop fact fluency through strategies that reflect how students truly acquire basic facts — without timed tests or one-size-fits-all routines.
Most of all, you’ll walk away knowing how to look at a student, identify what they need, and build a plan that helps them close the gap — not just through more practice, but through meaningful progress.
Feel CONFIDENT in your ability to develop math interventions that work– just like these Math Intervention Uncomplicated students!
Wondering How The Course Works? Let's Dive In!
Starting June 1st, a new set of course materials will be released each Monday — all focused around a key theme. You’ll have access to:
Short, practical video lessons
A few reflection prompts to help you process and apply what you’re learning
And planning activities that directly support your work next school year
You can move through the material at your own pace — whether that’s a little each day, or one focused block of time on the weekend. No deadlines, no pressure.
At the end of each week (on Sunday), I’ll post a response video for the group — reflecting on your planning and reflections, and answering any questions that come up along the way. You won’t be learning in isolation.
The course will run for 4 weeks through the month of June, but you’ll continue to have access to all materials through the end of 2025 — so you can revisit anytime you need a refresh, or want to plan with intention during the year.
What's Inside of Math Intervention Uncomplicated?
Week 1
Setting The Course
The best professional development experiences leave you not only with increased knowledge but a plan to put that knowledge in place in your classroom.
Week 1 is all about developing a plan for your learning … a Math Success Plan… so that everything you learn in this course can be directly put into action within your classroom!
Over the course of our four weeks together you will never wonder, Where does this learning fit? How will this look in my classroom? We will take time in week one to understand the big picture in terms of best practices for your math intervention groups so you know exactly what pieces we will be studying and how they fit together.
We are spending this first week building a rock-solid foundation so that moving forward we can build math intervention plans that are simple and effective.
Highlights of this Week Include:
- Clarity on the 3 essential components every math intervention lesson should include
- A skeleton plan that we’ll build on throughout the course
- Space to reflect on mindset — a key part of intervention that’s often overlooked
Week 2
Build An Instructional Roadmap
This module is at the heart and soul of math intervention– or math instruction for that matter!
You will learn to construct lessons and lesson sequences that meet your students where they are and project them to where they need to be.
Have you ever had a student who could demonstrate understanding of a skill with manipulatives… but fell apart when the manipulatives were taken away? This is exactly what we are attacking in our week 2 content.We will be diving into hands-on materials and math models while keeping in focus the need to bridge the gap between scaffolds and abstract understanding.
Best of all? We will spend time practicing. We will take the math skills that you are teaching your students and practice creating a roadmap to get your students from where they are to where they need to be. No matter what student or math skill comes at you in the future, you will know exactly how to build a road map that will work for them!
Highlights of this Week Include:
- A deep understanding of the CRA framework and how to use it in real classrooms
- Gaining an in depth understanding of math manipulatives and visual models so you know which tool to choose to get the job done!
- The most important step- linking and buildling connections so that, ultimately, your students are successful without any scaffolds!
- We will create a concrete plan for a math skill you will be teaching in your classroom using these principles.
Week 3
Layer On Number Sense
Math intervention is only effective if you work towards a goal of not needing math intervention. Working on skills alone won’t help your students to meet that goal- you need to increase their number sense along the way!
In the third week, we will focus on understanding what number sense is and how we can build number sense in our students inside of the instruction we are already delivering.
This week is all about learning how to layer number sense boosting visuals, activities and language onto your instruction in an incredibly intentional way so that you are not only closing skill gaps but are also boosting your students overall math sense!
Highlights of this Week Include:
- Going in depth into 4 number relationships that inform number sense so that you understand what these relationships are, how to spot instruction that naturally boosts these relationships and so you can even assess your students number sense abilities.
- Illuminating these four number relationships across addition, subtraction and place value concepts to increase number sense.
- Throughout the week we will constantly practice creating "layered instruction". You will leave the week with a concrete plan to teach at least one math skill in your classroom along with a layered plan to boost number sense within that skill.
Week 4
Bringing In Fact Fluency
Ask any teacher above 1st grade what they wished their students came in knowing and they will answer that they wish they had a better grasp of their basic math facts.
The problem is that traditional math fact instruction focuses exclusively on the goal (students knowing facts from memory) and often neglects the root of the issue, how students learn and become fluent with their math facts.
In the final week of the course, we will tackle this problem head-on by learning exactly how students learn math facts from the time they are counting their fingers until the facts are accessed quickly and from memory.
You will leave this week feeling confident that you have a simple strategy for improving your students’ overall fact fluency and you will have a plan for how to make it happen in your classroom.
Highlights of this Week Include:
- Understanding how students move from hands-on strategies to knowing facts from memory.
- Understanding the progression of addition and subtraction strategies- you can better help your students get from where they are to where they need to be if you have a road map to follow!
- Diving into the difference between fact strategies, fact fluency and facts from memory. They are each different but are so tightly interrelated!
- Creating a solid plan that ties together everything we have learned in the course. Planning for specific skills, layering on number sense and increasing fact fluency.
When you enroll during this limited time period, you'll receive:
MATH INTERVENTION UNCOMPLICATED
- 4 Week Course
Each Monday of the course a new module will unlock. The module includes a workbook for the week as well as accompanying video lessons. The weekly modules include everything you need to know to create math intervention lessons and units you can confidently implement knowing that even your most struggling learners will find success.
- A Step-By-Step Math Success Plan
You will create this plan over the course of the 4 week course so that you are consistently applying your new knowledge. You will walk into your classroom with a concrete plan you can use to teach a math skill and will have the confidence and content knowledge to create a Math Success Plan for any need that may arise for your students.
- Number Sense and Fact Fluency Know-How
Math intervention is only successful if your students, ultimately, no longer need math intervention. You’ll walk away knowing not only how to attend to skill gaps but how to improve students’ overall number sense and fact fluency as well.
- Video Feedback Personalized to This Cohort
Each week of the course you will be completing reflection questions at the completion of your videos. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions to clear up and curiosities you might have. I will film and upload a video each week of the course responding to reflection questions and answering Q&A.
- A 10-Hour PD Certificate
I am happy to provide a 10 hour PD certificate at the completion of the course. It will be entirely dependent on your school, district and state as to whether they will accept this certificate. I have had many teachers in the past use my trainings for PD hours so while I can not guarantee that the certificate will be accepted in your district I am happy to provide it!
This four-week course will give you the content knowledge you need but also the guidance and practice that is critical to getting the most out of a professional development experience so you can easily implement your new learning in your classroom!
Enrollment includes 4 weeks of structured training, weekly cohort feedback via video, and extended access through 2025 — all for less than the cost of a single day of traditional PD.
You May Still Have a Few Questions
That answer can be highly personal so let’s walk through what the course offers and the choices you can make.
Each week you will receive a new set of video lessons for the week. These lessons are quick and under 15 minutes each so you can fit them into small pockets of time. In all, I recommend you set aside approximately an hour per week to watch the course videos.
I am passionate about the fact that a good PD includes a plan for bringing your new learning into your classroom. I provide step-by-step planning templates thoroughout the course that can be completed in as little as 20 minutes per week. If you are wanting to spend more time getting ahead on your planning for the school year you can spend much longer in the planning and practicing phase if you choose to do so!
You are absolutely welcome to spend more time in the course if you desire and the bonus materials including the live Q & A sessions will allow you to do just that!
The nice thing about time spent in this course is that it is time you will earn back throughout the school year. I am focused on giving you the information you need to create math plans that are both simple and effective. The time you spend implementing this new learning in creating lesson and unit plans is time you won’t need to spend creating plans this school year- the work will already be done!
No need to worry, you have more than enough time to go through the course at a pace and timing that works for you!
You will have access to the full course materials through the remainder of 2025. While new material is released a week at a time, you are free to work at your own pace and around your own schedule!
Summer can be busy and I want this course to work for you!
Yes, yes, 100% yes!
Day in and day out your curriculum tells you what to teach your students. The pacing may not (probably won’t) meet the needs of all of your students and differentiation may be a challenge.
This course is focused on how students learn, not what you should teach them. After completing this course you will quickly be able look at a lesson or unit in your curriculum and understand how you can modify it so that it is more supportive for students the first time through.
The Print & Plug Lesson Makeover Kit will also be an invaluable asset to you in your planning this school year! It’s a step-by-step printable guide that allows you to upgrade your lessons in just a few minutes. Print the guide and tape it inside of your TE as you work through units this year and your standard curriculum will be more supportive of your students for years to come!
The examples in this course are focused on addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, early fractions and place value. If you are providing remediation for students in 1st – 4th grade this course will be the BEST fit for you.
That being said, the teaching strategies are universal to elementary math and would be helpful to any teacher supporting struggling learners. If you are working with 5th or 6th grade students, you will be well supported in teaching strategies although you would need to apply the principles to multiplication, division, fractions and decimal numbers.
Of course!
- Access Into a 4-Week Course Each week you will receive a new set of lesson videos. You will also receive step-by-step instructions for a planning activity that will allow you to put your new learning directly into action (while getting ahead on next year’s planning as well!)
- Weekly Q & A Videos Each week I will take your questions and responses within the program and will film a video for the group answering questions, clarifying misunderstandings and generally ensuring that everyone is on track! The videos will be uploaded weekly to the course platform.
- Intervention Planning Strategy Workbook This workbook gives a look inside of the structure I use when planning math intervention lessons. If you have ever struggled to balance the fact that your learners all gain knowledge at different paces, this training will be invaluable to you!
- The Print & Plug Lesson Makeover Kit Whether you have a curriculum you have been asked to use or whether you have spent years creating units for yourself, this print & plug kit allows you to quickly and simply upgrade your math intervention lessons based on your new learning in this course. I want to make implementation as easy as possible for you and this kit does just that!
- 10 Hour PD Certificate** I am happy to provide a 10 hour PD certificate at the completion of the course. It will be entirely dependent on your school, district and state as to whether they will accept this certificate. I have had many teachers in the past use my trainings for PD hours but I absolutely can not guarantee that the certificate will be accepted in your district.
Enrollment is open now for $97.
You’ll get access to the course materials through the end of 2025 — and clarity that will carry you through years of intervention planning.
I Can't Wait To Work Together!
I’ve been to countless math professional developments over the years. So many times I left wondering how the new learning would fit into my classroom.
I would learn about a very specific strategy or teaching technique.
Or maybe I would learn about a new curriculum we were using.
Or maybe I would learn to look at student work with new eyes.
At the end of the day, I had learned new pieces of information but I was still left with a puzzle wondering how (or if?) all of those pieces fit together.
I knew there had to be more to math instruction than all of these pieces, I needed to figure out how the full puzzle worked together and so I studied. I studied textbook after textbook and article after article until the big picture came into focus.
I created this course so that teachers like you can understand how students learn math and to give you a clear framework to plan math lessons and units that work.
I have created this course so you can have the professional development I WISH I had had.
It is my philosophy that math intervention is working when students no longer need math intervention. That’s why this system focuses on filling instructional gaps, boosting number sense and building fact fluency. I want to help you to create well rounded math students who no longer need math intervention.
