Establishing Math Workshop is one of the key ingredients in a Guided Math block in your math classes. Math Workshop allows you to facilitate independent and individualized learning in a small group setting. While you are working with a small group for Guided Math, or facilitating math conferences 1-on-1, the other students in your classroom are engaged in various tasks. Throughout the course of this eBook, I go into the ways that I was able to implement Math Workshop (student-directed small groups) and Guided Math (teacher-directed small groups) in my 7th and 8th-grade classrooms for several years.
