I have been a math teacher for almost 20 years at all age levels, homeschool through college, private schools and public schools. I've taught gifted students, challenged students, and students who thought math was BORING. My favorite students to teach, though, are the ones who think they can't do it.

A Kaffenate Mini Module is a one page (front and back) sheet that covers a single topic. Each KMM has:
–An instructional section: The instructional sections at the top of each page are either very thorough examples, step-by-step instructions, or both.
–Practice problems: Problems start out easy and get progressively more difficult throughout the module. Each problem has enough space for the student to work it out right there.
–Challenge or puzzle: The kids love the challenges or puzzles that are part of each module. These acts as both incentives and, sometimes, self-checking tools.
–Answer Keys! Busy teachers don’t have time to make their own answer keys. I’ve done that for you.
Kaffenate Mini Modules can be used in SO MANY WAYS!
–Topic Introduction
–Daily Warm Up
–Homework
–Pop Quiz
–Substitute Plans
–Extension Work
–Catch-up Work
–Topic Review
–OR whatever else YOU can think of! (In fact, tell me how you use them!)
