Ms. Calder, Math, 6th Grade

Posts

August 21 - 25

Warmups will be reviewing Math skills and preview skills that we will be working on this year. 
 
The students took the Chapter 1, Numerical Expressions and factors, pretest so I could have a better understanding of what they need to learn.  
 
We will be starting Math groups based on the skills that they need to learn.  The groups can change daily based on the learning that needs to be acquired. We will learn the routine and expectations of what small groups look like and the tasks that need to be completed while waiting for instructions. 

August 14 - 18

The students will be getting in the Math class regular routine this week with the exception of Tuesday where the students will be taking the MAP assessment. 
 
Math class will be run with a warmup to start class, there will be daily math work, and then small group instruction based on the math skills that they need to conquer. 
 
In 6th grade math the students have a math book with 10 Chapters.   At the beginning of each Chapter, students will be given a pretest. Based on the outcome of the pretest, students will be taught the math skills that they haven't learned yet in a small group. 
 
Chapter 1 is working on Numerical Expressions and Factors.
