Addressing Math Anxiety in Elementary Students
Math anxiety in students can lead to behavioral changes and adversely impact their achievement in math. This presentation will explore research surrounding strategies to support students with math anxiety at the elementary level. This presentation was largely based on a specific 3rd grade student who was exhibiting negative behaviors at the start of math. This student is testing between the 15th and 30th percentile in math and has expressed that they feel like they are bad at math. Although I am limited in my ability to implement strategies, I have proposed several research-based strategies to support this student and others who are struggling with similar math related anxiety.
