Math Workshop
We use a workshop format for learning and practicing our math. We work on understanding numbers and explaining our thinking. We use math journals to explore math and integrate writing. We typically have time for our journals, a mini lesson, and group station rotations with small group instruction.
This year I will expect students to complete some learning at home through videos that I create. These videos will show students the process and strategies that I want to practice during math time. This is called flipping the classroom. It allows more practice time with the teacher being able to hone in on those that need more help. We can do more work to understand the lesson rather than spending the time to listen to the lesson. These lessons will be found on our Google Classroom account.
