MOVE IT Math™ is a professional development program for elementary school teachers of mathematics.
It is a math course in that it is based on five mathematical “keys” or essentials for understanding and lasting success in basic math— the arithmetic of work, business, and daily living. It is also a methods course on how to teach basic math because the strategies used to teach the keys to teachers are the very ones to use with children, virtually all children—those in need of remediation as well as those ready for enrichment and acceleration. It is thus a vital resource for parents, guardians, tutors—anyone helping children with their math—as well as elementary school aids and teachers.
