Simplify and Streamline your Math Centers!
During my second year of teaching, I made the jump to guided
math and it was hands-down the best instructional decision I’ve made! It allows
me to support my learners at all levels and really get to know them as
mathematicians. By working with all students in a small group every single day,
I got a much clearer picture of what students were able to do and where they
needed to grow!
But you know what I didn’t love about guided math? Math
centers. I loved the concept of students practicing and reviewing previously
taught skills. I loved that they are able to practice these skills in fun,
hands-on ways. But, every week I seemed to run into the same issues. It was
taking me too long...
