# 7 Videotaped Interviews

What is the main idea from this article?
What are three key points for you?

Why do you think you needed to read this for MRIS?

Article #3

Who Is Really Learning Disabled?
By Gary L. Hessler

This is another one of my favorite articles. What do you think the term "curriculum casualties" refers to? Do you think there are curriculum casualties in your school? With your students?

Although most of the article refers to reading, how can you relate these ideas to mathematics?

Article #2

This is one of my most favorite articles from NCTM about subitizing and structuring number. There has never been an emphasis on structuring number. What is subitizing? What is the difference between perceptual subitizing and conceptual subitizing? What are some key points you will use in your math instruction?
