Take time at the beginning of the school year to build the confidence and skills students need in each area of the math workshop. They will also need to become familiar with where to find the materials needed and learn the expectations during this time. Once students are comfortable with each part of the workshop, set them up in groups and assign them a group number or color group. Decide also how many groups you will have and if you will have math workshops in rotations, rounds, or days of the week. You can use clothespins with student names and clip them onto the grouping cards for easy changes or write on the provided posters. Once groups have learned the rotation schedule, they are ready to proceed through the math workshop. Use the EDITABLE planning sheets to write down what each group will be completing in each part of the math workshop rotation. The meaning of the MATH acronym: M – Math Warm-Up For Math Warm-Up, students complete quick activities or math problems in their math journals, complete math minutes or math fact practice, or complete a math question of the day or other activity you have posted for them. M (variation) - Meet with Teacher For Meet the Teacher, students join the teacher in a small group. The teacher either teaches a lesson, reviews a skill, provides support to complete work, or another activity. A – At Your Seat For At Your Seat, students complete a math assignment in their math workbook or whichever math program or worksheets you assign. T – Teacher Time For Teacher Time, students meet with the teacher in small groups or as a larger grade group to work on a skill for that day. T (variation) – Tech Time For Tech Time, students complete a math activity using technology (e.g.; on a tablet, Google Classroom; SMARTboard). H – Hands-On For Hands-On, students complete a math game or a math center. You can place your materials for these games and centers in numbered drawers or bins and instruct students to complete one of the activities.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my post about using pattern blocks! I am happy to report that I have really cleaned out and organized my math manipulatives and began using pattern blocks this week. We are beginning our geometry unit with translations, rotations, and reflections! We used pattern blocks to draw original shapes and then made translations. I made a translation, rotation, and reflection quiz that I wanted to share as a ~FREEBIE~. I plan to use it for a quick, easy grade but it could be modified for practice. Happy Saturday, y'all!

Teaching using a guided math model does not mean you have to say good-bye to whole-group instruction. In fact, it's very important to start with a mini-lesson before you begin your small groups/math centers. Here are some reasons why: > You set a purpose for the day. Students will know the learning goal and will stay on task. > You help build background knowledge. You can introduce vocabulary words students will interact with during their math centers. > You can quickly see how well students have mastered the concept and adjust math groups as needed. Let me share with you 4 ways you can start your math workshop block. This whole-group instruction should be no longer than 15 minutes. It is very important that you teach math vocabulary to your students. Not only will they see these words in math problems, but you should expect students to use these math words as they explain how they solve their math problems. Our math text book has vocabulary cards for students to use. If your textbook doesn't have this, you can have students create vocabulary flash cards using index cards. Students can also use part of their interactive math notebook to keep a list of math vocabulary words by topic. Other resources: MathisFun.com has a wonderful illustrated vocabulary website. (Click here to view) Using Number Talks with students is a way for students to build mental math strategies. Number Talks are math warm up problems where students are asked to explain how they solved the problem in their head. Students are not to use pen and paper. It is the teacher's job to write down student thinking and guide students to use the strategies that are most efficient. Where can you get these math problems from? Some textbooks come with a daily math warm up problem you can use. You can also look through the practice problems from the day and pick a couple to complete before you start your guided math groups. Other resources: Estimation180.com is a math treasure that you will find very helpful. Click here to visit. We are very comfortable thinking aloud as we read a story in order to show students how reading is an active process. Yet, we don't spend much time thinking aloud as we solve math problems. Teachers need to model the process that goes into solving a math problem. Teachers don't always have to do the thinking aloud. You can break up your class into groups of about 5 students. They solve the word problem together, and then you pick a couple of groups to share their thinking process. You can use word problems from your math textbook. I am also linking my math trifolds below. They are available for grades first, second, third, fourth, and fifth. I love technology, but sometimes it can be a big waste of time if you don't show students exactly what to do. You can use your 15 minutes of whole-group instruction to introduce and practice new technology activities. There are two main computer activities that we focus on in my classroom. My school bought each student an IXL.com math subscription. You can show students which skills you want them to focus on and practice a few before they complete the assignment on their own. I have recently created paperless math centers for students to complete during math workshop. These are digital, interactive math activities that are aligned to the common core standards. Teachers can easily assign these resources using Google Classroom or Microsoft 365. Below are links to the growing bundles for grades third, fourth, and fifth. I hope you have found these suggestions helpful :) Visit my blog @ MathTechConnections.com Visit my TPT Store Follow me on Pinterest! (Twitter ... Instagram) Follow me on Facebook :)
