A reusable Math Notes Math Mat is included to help students draw area models, organize their thinking, and show their work during math centers, small groups, or independent practice. Digital options are also included!

★ The Problem with Guided Math ★
- One big problem with guided math is not knowing what to assign for math centers.
- It can get especially overwhelming when pulling math games from various places. Teachers end up wasting lots of time explaining directions and students get off task because they are confused.
- Holding students accountable for their work during math centers is important. You want students to record their work, but then you don’t have extra time to check or organize all the recording sheets.
★ The Solution ★
