Welcome to Fun in Room 4B!
Welcome to my weekly series where I try to share what has worked (and hasn’t worked) in my classroom as I explore the wonderful world of Math Workshop: This week’s topic: I’ve received several questions about whether or not I teach whole group instruction at all. Yes, I do. I still enjoy teaching whole group….
I’m linking up with my friend, Jessica at Ideas By Jivey, for her Workshop Wednesday Link Up. She’s been focusing the last two weeks on Workshop Set Up, so I thought that I’d link up the last several posts from my Math Workshop Monday posts: Click on the pictures and they will take you to…
Welcome to my weekly series where I try to share what has worked (and hasn’t worked) in my classroom as I explore the wonderful world of Math Workshop: This week’s topic: I’ve shared how I had scheduled my Math Workshop when I first started {here}, but since then, I’ve made some simple modifications that have…
Welcome to my weekly series where I try to share what has worked (and hasn’t worked) in my classroom as I explore the wonderful world of Math Workshop: One of the questions I receive the most is the following: Last week, I started with this question, too. I shared a few lessons on setting up…
I’m having to double up on this post since I’ve been a “once a week-at best-blogger” lately. First, Currently…and then Math Workshop Monday 🙂 Listening: I love, love, love that my kids get along. I am truly blessed. Loving: Wouldn’t it be nice to have 3 day weekends at least once a month? Thinking: I…
Hello, and welcome to a new series! Most of the questions I receive in my inbox are related to Math Workshop, so I thought I’d take some time each week to cover a lot of the questions and to blog about what I am (of course) most passionate! So, I’ve started a new series: Each…
Happy Wednesday everyone! We were told to leave our building by 3:15ish today due to terrible weather heading our way (rain, wind and possible tornadoes). You didn’t have to tell me twice to get out of there. I’m home safe and sound and was able to finish yet another Valentine’s Day item. What? I know,…
We have been plugging along with multiplication. We have completed most of the foldables in the Multiplication Lapbook that I shared with you last week. The kiddos are really rocking this unit. I’m hoping that the test on Friday proves it 🙂 Tomorrow, I am introducing the task cards that I have created to go…
Hi everyone! I’m happy to report that, all in all, today was a huge success. I have three classes of math. All three classes were an overall success! I only had to send one group back to their seats during the “Hands On” time of rotations. That’s only one out of twelve. Pretty good. I’d…
This is the fourth week of school for me. It’s time to start Math Workshop and I’m so ready. The kids are ready. I spent about 30 minutes today explaining all of the procedures about how we rotate. We did a mini-simulation of the rotation, too. Everything went off without a hitch. I’m hopeful that…
