Explination for Math Teachers

I am going to share this resource with the teachers for an intervention strategy for our RTI small groups and for teachers to consider in their tier 1 differentiation. Will also explore sight for other best practices in teaching math. ? Is there such a thing as a math continuum while learning math?
