Abstract

This study focuses on the effectiveness of the Bridges Intervention program as a tier two intervention for 4th grade elementary school students in the area of mathematics. The intervention was delivered via instructional videos and follow up activities through the SeeSaw application. The focus of the study was to see if the implementation of Bridges Intervention increases students’ success when working with numbers in base 10 and if students’ have an increase in their STAR MATH scores. Students were be given placement assessments via the SeeSaw application based on the recommendations of the Bridges Intervention program. Once students were assessed they received two instructional videos and follow up activities a week via the SeeSaw application. This research took place in a North Dakota elementary school, specifically to seven 4^th grade students. All seven students demonstrated growth in at least one of the two standards assessed in the area of numbers in base 10.
