6th, 7th math and 8th grade Algebra teacher at Clinton Middle School. Keep informed of class activities and ways to use math at home--and ENJOY it.
This is me! I research & analyze what’s best for Ss to access the concept throughout the year! #perfectionist However, I vow to not be perfect & plan to provide work that is doable In < 30 min. #lessismore @CMSCardinals #theresnocryinginmath
Many of us #teachers are perfectionists, and this is one case where we shouldn’t be. #edchat Here's why. 👇 weareteachers.com/online-learnin…
This is what it’s about! There has to be a balance from worksheets and websites! @ClintonMoCards #sendinglove
My students have two challenges for the week. Build the best reading fort (send me a picture) and communicate (call, write, draw) with someone they love. Something fun and creative and an act of kindness that will make someone 😀. We need to less their anxiety, not add to it.
At the start of the unit 7th graders given a decision of items to buy... which is better deal? $20 off or 20% off? Card sort made formative assessment process easy! Good discussion! #3acttasks @CMSCardinals #iteachmath
6th graders used patterns to guess the secret number Ray! Factors and Multiples, Oh My! Over the past few weeks we played factor game and product game! #illuminations #nctm #iteachmath
Got behind in posts! Last week 6th Ss passed the envelope and checked their understanding with Least Common Multiples. When will the Ferris Wheels meet at the bottom again? #iteachmath #CMP @CMSCardinals
Best morning to watch some football! Way to go Cardinals! Undefeated Champions! #my6thgraders #cardinalpride
7th graders compared theoretical and experimental probability using tree diagrams to determine sample space! Rock, Paper, Scissors, Shoot! Flipping R/Y Chips! @CMSCardinals #MP4
7th grade completed a scavenger hunt to practice theoretical and experimental probability and make predictions! This Formative Assessment process allows me to check for misunderstandings before the quiz! @CMSCardinals #numbersense
6th grade intro to integers! We played integer war to practice comparing negatives and positives! Highest Value wins! Why is -3 > -8? 🤔 @CMSCardinals #Critiquereasoningofothers #MP3
7th graders use equivalent ratios to make predictions using theoretical or experimental probability! Scavenger Hunt and Quiz tomorrow!
6th grade working on equivalent fractions and decimals! 1) Place Value and simplifying fractions. Common misunderstandings 45/90 ➡️0.45 (does not equal 45/100) 2) Compare 1/4 and 0.3! @CMSCardinals
Last week 7th graders played Roller Derby and predicted the sum of 2 dice. Do you think some sums are more likely than others? 18 cubes 18 rolls ... students got better with their predictions @CMSCardinals #theoreticalprobablility #experimentalprobability
These problems were difficult for 6th grade last week! What makes them tricky? Ex 1: 2/8 is not one of the choices! Ex 2: number line is from 4-6 so it appears it’s tenths. The answer was in decimal form. #nextsteps #equalvalues @CMSCardinals
Making big progress! Ordering Rational numbers from least to greatest in ALL representations! Looking for equivalencies! #fluency @CMSCardinals
Quick Images in 7th grade math! Estimating %! #formativeassessment #benchmarks #quickimages #highyieldroutines #NCTM @CMSCardinals
6th graders practiced and checked for understanding by completing a Mad Lib! Some were harder than others! Quiz tomorrow @CMSCardinals #feedback #simplify #numberlines #equalvalues
7th graders must be able to...represent probability on a number line between 0 and 1! Quiz tomorrow! Find Someone Who Can... @CMSCardinals #engageny #errorsunlikely #equalvalues
As promised- pictures of 6th graders and their hard work and precision! @CMSCardinals @ClintonMoCards
6th graders having been working on plotting points on a coordinate grid and using a number line to compare values in multiple representations! Pictures coming tomorrow! @ClintonMoCards #perseverance #attendtoprecision
It’s CERTAIN we had fun today in Math! 7th graders placed Values in multiple representations along with words associated w/ probability! Event cards were sorted on a number line according to likeliness of occcuring! @ClintonMoCards #fluency #MP2 #MP6
