One week of school is over. This is the first time I have ever started school before Labor Day and I have to say, I didn't think I would like it at first, but having this weekend to recharge after the first week is actually a really great thing. Amazingly we don't have a full week until October. We have a day off for PD next week, then we have a Friday and Monday off for the Pope coming to Philadelphia. It seems like we won't have a full week of school until mid-October!
I spend most of my first week pushing into general education classrooms with my students and getting to know them. I am starting to teach content in my small pull out groups this week. I teach math learning support so I focus purely on making sure my students are getting as close to achieving the grade level common core math standards as possible. My 2nd grade students will be following the common core standards this year. We will be using the GoMath curriculum as our guide however I will be mixing in Saxon Math and TouchMath. I am presenting most of my content in the form of interactive notebooks that I am creating myself to meet their needs and the common cores objectives. Here are this weeks notebooks! You just need to cut them out and glue
Even and Odd Interactive Notebook- GoMath 1.1
Base 10- Tens and Ones Interactive Notebook- Go Math 1.3
The tens and ones chart here is designed to be taped over with packing tape to make a small dry erase surface for students to practice breaking multiple numbers into 10s and 1s.
Expanded Notation Interactive Notebook- GoMath 1.4
