How to Be a Successful Math Student Classroom Poster
About Mid-year, I realized I was repeating myself to some students about what they need to be doing to show they are trying the best they can. I made this poster as a visual to point to whenever I started trying to remind them of where they are in their learning. After I hung this poster, I probably referred to it at least twice a day. By the end of the year, the students knew exactly what was expected of them to prove they were giving their best effort. This is a pdf file. You can convert

Teaching style
My teaching style is a mix of old-school and hands-on. I know students need to move around and touch materials to learn. I do believe one-on-one teaching and math manipulatives are very valuable in a successful math classroom. I also believe students need lots of practice. Today's students need to get off the iPads and work more with paper and pencil.
