Are you looking for a fun way to get your students to speak mathematically? Well, have your students indulge in a "math talk" by having them refer to the math talk bulletin board. It is a great way to get students to communicate mathematically and also to listen to one another. Try it for yourself! :)
All grade appropriate.
I needed a way to get my students engaged in learning and take more autonomy in the classroom so I created this handout that allows students to reflect on how they worked in their "math teams" and self-assess their work.
At the end of the month, the math team with most 5's or stars earned a prize.
So far it has been working so keep our fingers crossed!
Try it for yourself.
Great resource for introducing multi-step problems to your students. This handout uses a problem solving organizer where students need to think about what the question is, what they know from the problem and how they will solve the problem. Includes 4 challenge problems at the end of the handout. Try it out!
Great way to help students self-monitor their work. Instead of the teacher keeping track of feedback given to student, students can keep this sheet in their binders and anytime the teacher interacts or conferences with a student, it is their duty to complete notes. You can edit for any subject! Great tool for data tracking
