Description

A 12-week series of 12 approximately 30-minute opportunities for children and families to engage with PEG+CAT episodes, video clips, online games, a tablet app, and print activities across multiple devices. Materials focused on patterns, geometry, measurable attributes, ordinal numbers, and counting, plus ATL skills, and "The intervention included a series of supports for parents" covering co-viewing, math talk, and problem solving and persistence.

Design Implications

Context
