I'm prepping for summer school today. It's actually a pretty easy and sweet gig, but I needed to prep a few little things so for the program, and I thought I'd share my goodies with you. :) Even though I'll only have my summer school kiddos for a few weeks, I still wanted to get to know them a bit. So I made up a little survey for them to fill out while we wait for everyone to arrive tomorrow. Click {here} to get your own copy. :) I changed it up a little bit to fit my summer school needs, but you get the idea. I also whipped up a little incentive chain to get my kiddos to read at home during our program. Nothing really earth shattering here, but if I could save one of y'all sometime one day, posting these was worth it! Off to label folders and name tags!
ESL Galaxy Designing Shifts-Aligned Interventions in the Math Classroom As teachers, we want to help all kids learn and when we’re faced with the realization that some students just aren’t “getting it,” we work to figure out how to catch kids up. It’s a prevalent struggle many educators grapple with and a frequent conversation in schools: How do we address unfinished learning in math and fill gaps in student understanding? Over the course of my career I have seen, all too often, students behind grade level denied access to grade-level mathematics, in an effort to catch them up or “fill the holes.” All students deserve access to content-rich instruction at their grade level, and when students have unfinished learning from previous grades, teachers need to take appropriate action—and that doesn’t mean reverting solely to materials and content from previous grades. So, how do we address unfinished learning and support students in developing understanding and mastery of content? Recommendations for Targeted Math and Intervention Save

When youcubed offered “How Close to 100” as an activity for learning math facts with visual representations, teachers across the world were thrilled and responded with thousands of tweets showing students learning by playing the game. Some of the world’s top mathematicians engage almost entirely with visual mathematics. For example, Maryam Mirzakhani, arguably the most important mathematician of our time, works almost entirely visually. In news articles she is shown sketching ideas on large pieces of paper on her kitchen table, Maryam joked to reporters that her 3 year old daughter probably thinks she is an artist. Despite the importance of visual mathematics at high levels of mathematics (and all other levels) there is a common perception that visual mathematics is only needed as a crutch for more abstract mathematics.
