👉 Managed math, also known as guided math, is an instructional strategy that supports students in developing mathematical understanding through a structured, teacher-led approach. It involves breaking down complex math concepts into manageable parts, using visual aids and manipulatives to foster conceptual understanding, and providing scaffolding to guide students through problem-solving. Teachers act as facilitators, offering targeted support and questioning to encourage critical thinking and reasoning. This method emphasizes the development of problem-solving skills, logical reasoning, and mathematical fluency by allowing students to explore concepts at their own pace while ensuring all students build a strong foundation in math.
