"Fall Break" starts for me within the next four days...either tonight (if our child comes this weekend) or after Monday! 6 weeks with our little one.
I actually prefer the longer stretches of time. While it does wear on you, it helps with the cadence of the weeks, and allows us to get into a...
Rule #4: Pick the phone up and start trying random numbers and see what happens ;)
Ten frames, hundreds chart, arrays, multiplication chart, etc..., depending on the particular skill you're looking at.
Based on the makeup of that class, perhaps part of the off-task is because it's not something that's at their level, or they're so used to...
I think you're right on the mark. Don't discourage use of fingers at any point, but simultaneously build in those number talks based on what your...
I see nothing wrong with that. And if there's any question - rephrase it into asking whether you'd ask teachers to be 100% on task for three...

Way different than a normal summer. Won't be able to go to the classroom at all (demolishing current school; have to be out by 1pm on the last...
Much of our intermediate suggests to kids that they start on the yellow scratch paper...especially the planning process (and for most the drafting...
I do a mix of both, at least in terms of publishing. Though a vast majority of the time, even for the SBAC, they're starting on paper.
Does that mean you're going to go make slime for kids next year? (Ba-dum-tsch...)
Ha - my first few days of break in previous years usually would be in the classroom, cleaning up, playing around with my class library, thinking...
That's a good question-- I don't know federal laws, but our school district does have quite a few different levels of services available and does...
