Based on the Orton-Gillingham approach, Multisensory Mathematics applies the research-based Concrete-Representational-Abstract (CRA) approach to teaching mathematics as advocated by the National Math Panel and the NCTM.

Concepts and skills are taught systematically from simple to complex with review and reinforcement to develop mastery. New information is taught through visual, auditory, and tactile kinesthetic modalities to ensure students form a deep conceptual understanding of mathematical operations and language.

Cost includes math manipulatives, handouts, and activities designed by Marilyn Zecher and Key School math teachers.
