About the store
I am a secondary math specialist for a large public Texas school district. I work with schools to implement PLCs, incorporate strategies in the classroom, and write curriculum for our district. I taught high school math for seven years in Texas before becoming a math specialist. I graduated in 2009 with my Bachelors in Arts in Mathematics from Trinity University. In 2010, I graduated with my Masters in Arts in Teaching also from Trinity. In the summer of 2013, I traveled on a Fulbright scholarship to Germany and learned a lot about curriculum, diversity, and differentiation. I love empowering teachers to build on their strengths and helping students make connections to what they’re learning. When I’m not teaching, you may find me with my two boys and husband, at one of his basketball games, playing with our two pups, or making cake pops.

Cognitive Group Work Roles

Created by
TaplinsTeaching
Do you use roles when putting students in groups? While I think roles like "supply manager" and "time keeper" are important for classroom management, they are finite tasks and don't have a large impact on learning. Use these cognitive roles with sentence stems to help students achieve your learning target for the day. Print the second side if you would like to use the active roles for classroom management purposes.
