Congratulations🥳. I hope we never EVER need to do it again. ![]()

Here’s some socially-distance-able math games. Sit them two desks apart and let them reach. Make a rule that students MIST say the complete math sentence aloud. Let them takes them home to play with family. Let them color the color-by-code practice sheets. ![]()

Remind them that they too are doing something no one has ever done before. These kids are amazing. And, we can help them improve their fact fluency without stress. ![]()

My best products are on sale. ![]()

Even the bundles. ![]()

If you’ve even thought fir a minute you’d like to let someone else run your ELA or Math class for a day... this is the day! 😂![]()
![]()
But seriously, a Guide Me Math Pack couldn’t be less prep.![]()
![]()
And anyone who’s used my ELA warm ups will tell you it’s easy to accidentally just run with it for a whole period.![]()
![]()
So, if you’ve ever had a day like that... or you think you might sometime soon... just grab the bundles!!![]()

Hope this makes the final stretch short and sweet! 🧁![]()

If you already know a student is struggling, these are some simple ways to get straight to the CONCEPT you are teaching!![]()
![]()
👀So much of our students’ struggles are tangled up in unfinished learning around facts, whole number computation and the math anxiety that results. ![]()
![]()
☀️If we can eliminate some of THAT, we can create some positive MATH experiences! And momentum builds. ![]()
![]()
😳Worst case scenario: Nothing changes, and you’ve got some VALUABLE data to share with your school’s student support team (MTSS, RTI, ABC123?😂).![]()
![]()
🤷🏼♀️ And here’s the push back I hear a LOT: But what about the grade?? And what if everyone else wants that easier version? ![]()
![]()
💣1. Grades are stupid. (🤦🏼♀️ I know. But, really... they are. 😳 And if you don’t do this, that student is not learning the concept anyway, so??? I put an “m” near the mark in my grade book so I know it was done “with modifications.” But, whatever works! ![]()
📣2. No one will really know about this version unless you announce it. So, if that’s an issue for you- don’t! 🤫 (Once you realize how great it is when students take ownership of what they need as learners, you may have new ideas about that👀.)![]()
