How to Teach Long Division So That Their Answers Are Accurate

How to Teach Long Division So That Their Answers Are Accurate

February 16, 2021

Teaching Long Division. I can almost feel the pain just typing the words. I think I have some residual PTSD from erasing a hole through my paper in Ms. Donahue’s fourth grade class in the 80’s. Guessing wrong how many times 37 “go-zin-ta” 566… and not knowing until the end of a traumatic subtraction exercise complete with WAY too much… Read More

Digital Writer’s Notebook

Digital Writer’s Notebook

September 21, 2020

In 2018, I toyed with the idea of digital writer’s notebooks. In 2019 I piloted it with just one class during the Writer Wednesday part of our weekly ELA warm ups. When we found ourselves in a global pandemic in 2020, I was glad I took that risk!

Subtracting Mixed Numbers with Video Lessons

Subtracting Mixed Numbers with Video Lessons

April 19, 2020

Every year, many of my students struggle to subtract mixed numbers when regrouping is needed. Flipping my instruction around subtracting mixed numbers has made a HUGE difference! Once I have initially launched the concept, students work through problems at their own pace. First, they attempt a problem independently. Next, they click on the problem within a digital worksheet and watch… Read More

Reading Each Other’s Writing

Reading Each Other’s Writing

March 18, 2020

Are you hoping for your students to read and enjoy each other’s writing? I was too! And I found it so challenging for so long. This strategy, I call the Writing Shuffle, has made all the difference. Not only do students get excited to read each other’s work- but they are thoughtful about feedback, and can engage in the entire… Read More

Group Work Tips: Partnering

August 5, 2019

I’m always on the lookout for a handy student group work strategy. This one, Clock Partners, is one of my favorites! Sometimes when you prepare for group work, you stay up too late the night before making sure everyone has just the right partner. Have you been there? I have! And, honestly, even if it goes well- it leaves me… Read More

Turn and Talk Tips

July 31, 2019

This is one of my favorite strategies to teach my classes- and my life as a teacher has become so much easier since I implemented a few key steps. My teaching partner and I experienced our very first Turn and Talk as participants in a workshop by Bobb Darnell in 2008 and we’ve been using it with students and adults… Read More

Sometimes, I need an easy out. And I’m shocked every time that it works. I really do want reading for them- really! But, I also know know it’ll be a little like when I turned the car seats front and couldn’t snack freely without sharing anymore. 😂😂😂What’s your best #momhack white lie??#momhumor #teachermomlife #teachermom #feedingkids #bedtimebattles #christmastradition #reuse #recycle #frugalmom #lies #whitelies #momtruth #momtruths #icecreamfordinner ...

🐣 I try to hide the eggs within plain sight because as a kid, there was ALWAYS an egg (or two) discovered months later. I guess my kids are more observant than I was, because they find them all in minutes!🤒We are isolating and quarantining and eating alphabet soup by @dreenaburton today. I have all of the lasagna parts, but not enough energy to make it happen! I can’t tell if I’m tired from getting up with a sick kid, worrying about getting sick or being the Easter bunny at midnight 🤷🏼‍♀️ #momlife I guess… Happy 3rd pandemic Easter! Is this thing over yet?!?!#teachermom #veganholidayfood #veganholidays #pandemiceaster #teachermomlife #mentalloadofmotherhood #toddlerfood #vegankids #puppetry #pancakes ... See MoreSee Less

What kind of grammar crime is driving YOU crazy these days? Currently, so am obsessed with making sure students know exactly what words make up contractions. I had a few too many run ins with “could of” recently, and I am afraid it’s going to be around every corner... in every piece of student writing. 😬Every Tuesday is Typo Tuesday, in my ELA warm ups and although I love them all... My favorite is the blank EDITABLE slide that I can customize on the fly when someone writes something RIDICULOUS on a Monday like, “they could of gone to the game.” 🤷🏼‍♀️ (Editable slides in bundles😉)So, if you are a Grammar & Conventions crime fighter, like me- you may want to check out the ELA warm ups in my Write Solutions TPT store.
