Strategies for Learning Math Handout
If you’ve taught math for any period of time, you’ve probably heard students say something like, “I started my homework and I couldn’t remember what to do.”
Many of these students took notes during class, but the example problems they wrote down were unorganized and completely meaningless by the time they got home and started working on homework.
This handout provides some examples on how students can better engage with math procedures during the classroom note-taking process.

Teaching style
My focus as teacher is to help students discover why math works. I love incorporating hands-on games, activities, and projects that encourage a thoughtful learning of math concepts.
