Math Lesson Structure

An Introduction

The ALN Lesson Structure is a teaching framework so everyone can learn math with conceptual understanding. Through the use of an inclusive Main Lesson and a differentiated math Menu, we create a context for learning that can support success for a broad range of learners.

The framework includes four elements: Launch, Main Lesson, Menu, and Closure. All parts of the lesson include differentiation, inclusion for all learners, and opportunities for students to engage in developing conceptual understanding (Common Core State Standards) alongside development of mathematical practices (Standards for Mathematical Practices).
