"This book discusses Acceleration in Math. Acceleration is a paradigm shift. It is moving away from schlepping students through the fields of everything they don't know and targeting the interventions so that it serves as a footbridge into the right now. Acceleration helps all students to be in the "know." It prepares them for upcoming lessons so that they can actively participate with the peers exploring grade level standards. Acceleration is a way of saying, "Everybody is invited to this party." Throughout this book you will learn ways to plan, implement and evaluate accelerated lessons in math"--
