How To Set The Tone On The First Day Of School

It is the initial impression of your classroom, after all, that establishes its culture. It’s the feeling, the pace, the attitude, the mood, and the spirit of the experience that expresses who you are, what you value, and what it means to be a member of your classroom. It’s the heady mixture of hope and possibility that fuels everything you do and say with greater significance. Although your first-day lessons and activities play an integral part in setting the tone, it’s your style and demeanor that rule the day. What follows isn’t so much what to do on the first day of school . . . it’s how to be. Be Likable The old maxim that you shouldn’t smile the first two months of the school year is terrible advice.

Measurement is a great opportunity for our students to participate in hands-on activities, explore their environment and learn a bunch of new math vocabulary!

:) Debbie Diller tells us that it's overwhelming for children to remember all the measurement vocabulary we ask them to use, especially if we teach all the strands of measurement at once.

" "If possible, start by teaching students how to measure length over several weeks... a few weeks or even months later, teach about measuring weight or capacity. Instruction on measuring time should take place later in the year. " In Lory's words...SPLIT IT UP, SPREAD IT OUT, ENJOY IT LONGER! I've created my freebies with that idea in mind. A Maths Dictionary for Kids 2015 Full Site by Jenny Eather. About - Maths Mentality. About Maths Mentality I am a Primary Maths teacher with 24 years classroom experience.

Helping children gain a deep knowledge of mathematical concepts is my passion. By working extensively with other teachers and parents across a variety of schools I've noticed something rather interesting. Many adults (teachers and parents) don't feel confident in their own knowledge and ability in Maths and this influences their effectiveness in helping the children in their care. Mathsmentality.com.au was born from this need.

I have created a resource specifically to help teachers and parents feel more assured.

Bring the whole class together to revise the definition of area. Interactivemaths - Area. Curriculum Materials - Cool Australia. Running Records - Warners Bay Primary School. What is a running record? A running record is a record of errors, or miscues, that readers make as they are reading. Running Records were developed as a way for teachers to quickly and easily assess their students’ reading behaviours “on the run”, so to speak.

Running Records capture what the reader did and said while reading. They capture how readers are putting together what they know in order to read. They allow teachers to describe how children are working on text. Why do running records? Arts : Live.         Early Learning Education. Teaching Ideas Library - Alphabetical List of Books.
