Recognizing the levels of cognitive abilities and the differing multicultural backgrounds of children related to math ideas and skills they might be expected to learn, students identify and describe the cognitive abilities and prescribe math skills appropriate to these abilities; collect, order, and describe a variety of professional math resources, including the materials from multicultural perspective, available to the elementary school math teacher; plan and construct appropriate concrete or pictorial models to represent selected mathematical ideas; select or develop materials useful in diagnosing a learner’s ability to perform selected math skills; diagnose success; and present remedial lessons if needed.
