I am one of the few people in my department who uses interactive student notebooks. I LOVE them and am really happy that I have started to use them. They are especially terrific because we really do not have a textbook so students can create their own personal textbook with these notebooks. (Although in PreCalculus we do have a textbook and I still do an ISN, the students love it there too, much more accessible than their textbook and it will be a good resource for PreCalculus). Some of my colleagues do have students fill in a math journal, almost daily. They use composition notebooks and use it as a place to reflect at the end of class. Some also use it to have students track progress on homework and quizzes with cool little graphs. This is a pretty cool article on how the math journals can be used and why they are useful. And here is a neat little insert students can paste into the front cover of their journals: I'd love to incorporate some of this journaling into my Algebra One ISN but we got to page 174 in our approximately 190 available page notebook - I'm afraid I won't have room for this!

Do you have a Merge Cube? What are you waiting for???? Need a Merge Cube Lesson Plan? Merge Cubes are one of the hottest new trends in Educational Technology at the moment. Integrating AR/VR principles, a merge cube allows you to hold a hologram IN YOUR HAND!! The Merge Cube is basically a Augmented Reality trigger. Each side of the cube has a distinct pattern which is recognized by the Merge Cube suite of apps. MERGE Cube - Hold Holograms in Your Hand with Award Winning AR Toy for Kids - iOS or Android Phone or Tablet Brings the Cube to Life, Free Games With Every Purchase, Works with Merge VR/AR Goggles When a Merge Cube app is launched and you aim your digital device at the cube........TA DAAAAA! You can hold a skull in your hand: Explore the Solar System: You can dig like a Minecraft explorer: You can squeeze cheese, explore the solar system, study human anatomy aaaaaand so much more!! These features can be viewed through VR googles to enhance the experience as well. If you DO own a Merge Cube, congratulations!! I know that I loaded up when I saw them on sale at Walmart for $1 (that's right, $1!!). and in case you need it, here's a printable Merge Cube: Loading up on Merge Cubes was one thing, but launching them in the classroom to provide a MEANINGFUL learning experience was another! Sure they're cool, but HOW can I integrate them?? Let's begin by exploring the PLETHORA (and growing list) of apps that work with Merge Cube. At last count, there were 27!! See the list here Introducing Merge Cube to My Students When the stack of Mergecubes showed up in my classroom, they definitely caused a stir. "Is that the illuminati symbol?" "Can I touch it?" "Oooooo it's spongy!" "What's that for?" "When are we going to use that?!?" My favorite was a student that asked me EVERYDAY when we were going to use it saying, "This is the first time I've EVER been excited about coming to school!" Oh the drama of a sixth grader...🙄 FIVE Merge Cube Lesson Plans! https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Merge-Cube-Solar-System-Scavenger-Hunt-3721704 https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Merge-Cube-Mr-Body-Brain-Scavenger-Hunt-3741651 https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Merge-Cube-Pirate-Island-Poetry-3788762 https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Merge-Cube-Holo-Body-Heart-3782009 Get this lesson! https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Merge-Cube-Lesson-Plan-Evidence-Based-Writing-3710974 The writing lesson was the first one I tried. Here's how I did it: Objective: Students will be able to write sentences that explain evidence using transitional phrases instead of the word because. Standards: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.6.1 Write arguments to support claims with clear reasons and relevant evidence. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.6.1.C Use words, phrases, and clauses to clarify the relationships among claim(s) and reasons. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.6.2 Write informative/explanatory texts to examine a topic and convey ideas, concepts, and information through the selection, organization, and analysis of relevant content. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.6.2.D Use precise language and domain-specific vocabulary to inform about or explain the topic. Body of the Lesson: Distribute Merge Cube Lesson Plan "The Power of Because". Teach the concept of being a writer that explains evidence in a sophisticated way. Explain what the Merge Cube is Show the MAIN features of the DIG App and tell students what it is used for. Discuss the building components and do a small demonstration for the class. Have students prototype a design that they intend on building on the Merge Cube. When the prototypes are finished, allow for building time. (The learning curve is very flat. For the most part, my students took to the building platform right away with very few questions.) After the building time, regroup. Share/explain student builds (if time allows) Students will consider HOW their dig design turned out. Invariably, it is different from the build that they conceived in their prototype. Have students identify 6 elements of their build and EXPLAIN why they turned out that way using the "beyond because" writing stems that they've been provided. i.e. My fence didn't turn out as tall as I wanted due to the fact that I ran out of time. I built an enormous lake in the center of the field as a result of the blue cubes in the builder's components. Reflection Undoubtedly, students were excited and engaged. There was an intense focus and silence for the time period in which they were building in the Merge Cube. There were also a few moments of frustration when what they visualized was NOT the same as what they were able to create. This was a manageable level of frustration and was something that I anticipated for it allowed a greater depth of evidence to write about in response to the question "Why did your DIG turn out the way it did." Students were given space to explain what went right (and wrong!) Especially when I called 'time' when they've continued building for the next hour given the chance.!!!! So I recommend giving this a try. If you do, you'll be:

Area and Perimeter Math mnemonics: Area and Perimeter Concept Posters are great for helping students to remember the difference between these often difficult to remember mathematical concepts. They are perfect for your bulletin board area and can make a great addition to your math centers. They can also be used in student notebooks or you can use the additional pages that I included both in color and black and white. SUGGESTED USES: Classroom posters can be used as a teaching tool to recognize goals, set expectations or to introduce or review concepts. They can be used as standalone aids to help students master particular strategies and techniques. The following are different ways of using classroom posters: 1) They can be printed standard size (8.5x11 inches) and binded into a booklet as a study resource for students as an individual or small group activity. 2) As anchor charts 3) They can be used as reference books for small group use. Simply print and slide pages in sheet protectors to compile a binder or folder document. 4) They can be used as individual reference charts. Simply print the black-line version (if available) onto colored paper for students to stick in their notebooks or interactive journals. ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ ⚊ Customer Tips:How to get TPT credit to use on future purchases: • Please go to your My Purchases page (you may need to login).

There is so much more to "hands-on" than any single math tool can offer when it comes to teaching addition and subtraction with regrouping.

Personal Reflection: I'm looking down the road a few weeks to when my 7th grade class begins a long haul with Ratios and Proportions. (Stretching and Shrinking, Comparing and Scaling for those using the CMP books!) It makes sense that we will spend a lot of time on this unit because it's what the CCSS emphasize as the fundamental skills in 7th grade, and what we should build all 7th grade learning around. For that reason, I suspect many of my posts in the next few weeks will be around proportional thinking. (And I'll be going back to some of my others, such as the FitBit post, the Treadmill post, etc.) We participate in the BIC program, Breakfast in the Classroom, so I can't make this one a hands-on activity, but I would sure LOVE to. I'm finding that BIC (while I support it in theory) is going to force me to change my style of "bribing" kids to get engaged because of all the food I like to incorporate. :) Anyway, here we go! Grade Level: 6-8 Course: Math, Pre-Algebra Standards: 6.RP.1, 6.RP.2, 6.RP.3, 7.RP.1, 7.RP.2, SMP: MP1, MP2, MP3, MP4, MP6 Skills:Writing ratios, analyzing ratios, analyzing proportional relationships, solving proportions, using proportions in the real world, solving for missing values using proportions How to use this as a mad minute: I've taken to noting that each of these not only depends on the amount of time you are willing to commit to a given activity, but also to note the proficiency level of your students. I say this because I'm working with a population of students that is causing me to shift my thinking about what a "warm up" might look like, due to lower levels of proficiency, language challenges, etc. For a quick check in, 60 seconds or so, I would ask: What is the unit rate for mix, milk and eggs for 1 pancake? How to use this as a warm up: The above question would also work well for a warm up, if that is the skill you've been working on. However, I might ask the students to find the ingredients needed for a simple number of pancakes in order to highlight proportional reasoning and multiplicative relationships: How much mix would I need for 28 pancakes? How many pancakes would 6 eggs make? What about 7 eggs? How to use this as a mini-lesson? As you may have discovered reading other posts, I usually find images that catch my eye because I am skeptical. So my first thought was, does it make sense for this box of pancakes to make that many pancakes? Is this truly in "scale" or proportion? I would ask my students, is this in proportion? If so, how many cups does the entire box hold? Note, I don't think it is! If we use the eggs as a guide, the recipe is scaled by a factor of 9, but 9 times 1 cup is 9 cups, which is not 3Q. (A great way to work on unit conversions! Have you seen the "big G" conversion chart? I love it!) (Here's one place I found the image.) If we also use the factor of 9, the box would contain 18 cups of mix, which I would assume is more of a "Costco" size box, not what we see here. Finally, a scale factor of 9 would make only 126 pancakes, not 155. If we use the milk as our guide, the SF is 12. That would mean we need 24 eggs and 24 cups of "mix". That should also make 336 pancakes. Hmmm..... How to use this as a full lesson? I don't think this could be used as a full lesson, but it depends on your students. If you choose to use it, I would extend the warm up and mini-lesson into a full discussion AS WELL as setting aside time for students to present rebuttals and/or corrections to the "recipe." A great interdisciplinary connection would be having the students write the company (can we tell which company this is based on the colors? I think so.) with their discoveries. I suspect that the company might respond with some coupons or other "swag"!! How to use this as an assessment? Any one of the questions listed above would be perfect to use as an exit slip, a mini-quiz or an assessment question! Please feel free to use any of these ideas and modify them to meet your needs. However, please acknowledge the original source of the items and my own lesson outlines. ©NatalieRSprigg 2014
