I have been teaching middle school math for 18 years. I taught many years using Engage NY, so the rigor is very high and I would use lots of interactive notebook entries to help scaffold. When classroom teaching I specialized in interactive notebook entries to support learning, and fun ways for scholars to practice their skills. I am now a math interventionist and focus on creating work to target specific misconceptions and struggles, while keeping things fun.
