Guided MathUsing the Guided Math format, students will be introduced to concepts in small groups rather than in whole group. There will also be opportunities for students to play math games, participate in ongoing math projects, and practice fact fluency. Mainly, students will be placed into three groups and will rotate to each one of the following 15-20 minute centers:
Guided Math is made up of three components: Teacher Time, Try Time, Tech Time We will follow this format Monday-Thursday. Fridays will specifically be for review, problem solving, learning a new multiplication table, or assessment. Prior to each unit of study, students will be given a pre-assessment on the skills presented in the unit to determine which group would be best suited for them at the time. After each unit, students will be given a post test to assess progress gained. These assessments will be sent home at the end of each unit.
