Subject: Block scheduling and remedial pre-algebra

I am looking for creative ways to help 30 bottom students learn pre-algebra
in a 90 minute block schedule format.  The students are not usually
motivated, have short attention spans, and have tested at the bottom of
standardized testing <FCAT>.

My resources consist mainly of the standard Addison-Wesley Pre-Algebra set
of textbook centered worksheets and tests.My principal is an English teacher
who thinks of math as the impossible puzzle and can't give any suggestions
other than she wants something innovative and effective.
