critical foundation for long-term student
success in math as well as reading
(Duncan et al., 2007; Watts et al., 2014),
but the professional development (PD)
and curricular support for preschool
teachers often lack specific content and
training on high-quality math
instruction delivered by math content
experts. To address this problem, the
REL Appalachia toolkit development
team is developing a toolkit to provide
preschool teachers with support in
implementing core teaching practices
essential to promoting early math skills
and knowledge in children. The toolkit
is based on the Teaching Math to Young
Children IES practice guide (Frye et al.,
2013) and is being developed in
collaboration with state and district
partners in Virginia.
IES requests clearance for activities to
support the recruitment of schools and
districts to participate in an efficacy
study of the toolkit as part of the REL
Appalachia contract. A second OMB
package, which will be submitted later
this year, will request clearance for data
collection instruments and the
collection of district administrative
data.
The study will assess the efficacy of
the professional development resources
included in the toolkit. The evaluation
will also assess how teachers implement
the toolkit to provide context for the
efficacy findings and guidance to
improve the toolkit and its future use.
The evaluation will take place in 50
schools across approximately 10 school
divisions in Virginia and focus on
mathematics teaching practices and
student mathematics knowledge and
skills in preschool classrooms. The
purpose of this study will be to measure
the efficacy and implementation of the
REL AP-developed toolkit designed to
improve teacher practice and preschool
students’ math learning outcomes. The
toolkit evaluation will produce a report
for district and school leaders who are
considering strategies to improve math
learning in preschool. The report will be
designed to help them decide whether
and how to use the toolkit to help them
implement the practice guide
recommendations.
