Concerns About Counting

Concerns About Counting

April 28, 2015

Jump to improve counting with Mental Math Bingo or Base Ten Games. We have been counting in second grade all year: waiting in line, backwards and forwards, by 2s, 3s, 5s, 10s. Sometimes we start in the hundreds, other times the teens… So, why am I observing students struggle to cross decades when counting in the midst of double digit… Read More

Formative Assessment Checklists

Formative Assessment Checklists

March 25, 2013

How do you capture all of the learning that occurs during discussions, hands-on exploration and collaborative group work? When there is a written product… we know we can collect and correct (ugh)… but that’s not always my first choice. When I collect and correct too much, I lose the ability to catalog and analyze and make instructional decisions based on… Read More

Dittos & Worksheets & Packets, Oh my!!

March 5, 2013

So, your school department actually has a manual for you and it’s full of printables… They were designed by educators and statisticians… and people that must know more about teaching this content than you do… so why aren’t you students engaged? Well, I am writing this post to make sure you don’t “throw out the baby with the bath water!”… Read More

Student Engagement… Strategy #1

Student Engagement… Strategy #1

March 3, 2013

Jigsaw it! Regardless of the subject, brain research tells us we need many rehearsals (+20…yikes!) for new learning to stick! Learners rehearse learning when they are actually engaged in it. And, just to be clear… a worksheet with 20 math problems does not equal 20 rehearsals…( awwww, maaaan!) So, let’s consider the value of a jigsaw!

Dear Fellow Teachers, Let’s roll up our sleeves, take some risks and be proud of the outcomes! It’s February and by now you have a good idea where you want to focus your attention.

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. Link in stories too! #writesolutions #igconnect4edu #iteachtoo #tpt #elateacher #middleschoolela #iteachsixth #donow #iteachsixthgrade #iteachsixthgrade #iteachseventh #tptfs #iteach7th #iteach8th #iteacheighth #seventhgrade #iteachwriting #reflections #growingwriters #literacyactivities #classroommanagement #middleschoolteacher #middleschool #grammarpolice #grammarcrime #typotuesday #bellringer ...
