@GarrettMomof4 It is so hard when you are so engaged with the students and the discussion! And my personal struggle is keeping up with the notes when the groups change every time we begin a new unit! #mdgchat17
@bjohnsonscience I can honestly day I have truly witnessed the benefit of small group math instruction in my classroom. I have a much better understanding of what my students actually know. #mdgchat17
@bjohnsonscience I have heard wonderful things about this app as well. It is on my list to start using in the new year when I have a student teacher to help the kids (and maybe even me). Technology, especially on Apple products, has been a struggle for me! #mdgchat17
@jennOES2nd I love the Tenmarks! For the most part, it is very user friendly and I love that it is so easy to find assignments by standard. We do sometimes have glitches on the iPads, though. #mdgchat17
Q5: I am interested in what individual students should be completing when they are not in small group with me. Should it all be differentiated or on grade level? If it should be differentiated, when do they get adequate grade level practice? #mdgchat17
Q4: I currently use Tenmarks and Kahn Academy for math. Tenmarks is a great tool to help students master topics currently taught in class, while Kahn Academy provides more challenging concepts for my GT students (enrichment). #mdgchat17
Q2: I have extremely limited experience, but standard 5.G.4 will most likely be one of the easier standards for math this year due to the memorization my students seem to desire. For this standard, I have used labeled index cards to help students create a hierarchy.
Q3: I am most proud of my ability to keep my GT students engaged in math. Although it was hard adjusting to BY, I feel I have finally found a good balance of whole group and small group instruction. #mdgchat17
