Everyday Math Calendar Spiral Review for Upper Elementary 3-5
Need an updated form to bring calendar up to Common Core or to increase the rigor in the upper grades? I have created 7 different pages. The format stays the same, but the activities vary every two months to cover concepts like word form, base ten blocks for place value, rounding, associative and commutative properties, factors, multiples, attributes of shapes and solids, perimeter and area, measurement and conversion, money, time, fractions and simplifying, fact families, and multiplication fac

Checking Account System
Sample checks and checkbook register to record classroom incentives and consequence fines. Even with the debit card, learning to keep a checkbook register is an important life skill. It is a fun tool for practicing addition and subtraction of money. Can be used in a social studies unit on budgets or economy. We use it for the class store!

Goal Setting Reading Log
Build metacognition by setting reading goals and stating the current strategy the student is using. Students can rate the book, record the level and genre. There is room for them to state which book read was their favorite and explain why. Space has been provided for students to reflect on how they know they are reading a just right book along with the unfamiliar words they came across while reading. Great for conferring discussions and student portfolios.

Experience
I subbed for 5 years in everything from Pre-K to 6th grade. I taught school for 16 years in grades 2nd-4th. For 3 years, I worked as a Literacy Specialist.

Teaching style
I believe students learn best through guided discovery used often in small groups or partnerships where they are able to discuss and question their own understanding. Being able to talk with their peers before sharing their ideas and own understanding gives all students the opportunity to process what they are learning, change perspectives, and grow their understanding and confidence. Every classroom should be a safe place to make mistakes, so that mistakes become normalized and turned into a means to grow and shine.
