The activities in this packet are intended to support these challenges. Time on a Number Line helps students develop the base 60 aspect of time and time measures on the clock. It also provides a strategy for working with elapsed time. Readin’ ‘Round the Clock supports students working with the relationship between the hour hand and the minute hand. Numbers around the Face is a game that helps students first learn the numbers on the clock. These activities are also suited for students who have challenges with learning and need the extra support. I Have Who Has Elapsed Time covers elapsed time at a more sophisticated challenging level for students who are ready. This resource is also good for children with dyslexia and language-based learning deficiencies. We'd really like to hear about your experience with our resources.

Primary mathematicians first model “put together” and “take apart” situations using concrete objects, drawings, etc. These concepts are then expanded to composing and decomposing numbers additively. A connection to students’ prior work with building sets is important as students are developing fluencies with their addition and subtractions facts. Children need many opportunities to experience these situations. Incorporating seasonal manipulatives allows children to practice these mathematical ideas in a contextual setting. To effectively facilitate these activities, be sure to cover the common addition and subtraction situations found in Table 1, CCSSM, page 88.

Writing in mathematics involves more than just putting word to paper. Words need to be carefully chosen to communicate ideas and concepts clearly. Writing involves all of the languages of mathematics. Reading, vocabulary, notations and symbols, diagrams, charts, graphs, and metacognition all serve a role as students are engaged in writing in mathematics. Many and varied opportunities need to be provided for students to engage in original thought writing. And remember, just because a student can say something in words, it in no way shows that they can write those same thoughts. Those are two different skill sets. Writing also provides opportunities for the verbal learner to excel as well as the creative learner. We'd like to hear about your experience with our resources.

Vocabulary is one of the foundations for developing an understanding for any subject area and mathematics is no exception. For many students words used in mathematics may not be familiar in context. Students need many opportunities to use vocabulary in their daily work. Providing additional opportunities to review vocabulary in a learning station, center, or small group will help support students who are challenged by the language of mathematics. These five vocabulary ideas can be first used in the classroom in a large group or small group setting before rotating out to an independent/pair learning center. Specific mathematical topics are included, but the activities can be adapted for any topic or discipline for that matter. Facilitation notes are provided for each station. The ideas presented are but a start for the many ways in which these activities can be adapted. These are licensed for one classroom use only.

See how the use of a Mathematician's Notebook can change the way you teach as well as how your students learn. The Mathematician's Notebook.... 1. Becomes a dynamic place where language, data, and logical reasoning experiences operate jointly to form meaning for the student. 2. Helps students create an organized space for demonstrating their learning process. 3. Serves as a formative instructional tool as well as a portfolio of the students' learning experiences, which provides rich documentation for their thinking.

Cubing and think dots are two strategies for differentiation in the classroom. Traditionally students are given a cube with a variety of activities or tasks at a given level. Different cubes can contain different levels of tasks and activities. Think dots work in a similar way. Cards with a certain number of dots are provided as well as a number cube. Students roll the number cube and work the associated activity or task on the card with the corresponding number of dots. Again, tasks and activities are varied or leveled to meet the needs of the students. In this adaptation of a cubing and think dots activity, there are two cubes. One cube has constraints for the actions performed on expressions. Another cube has actions to perform on expressions. Students also use one or two number cubes or they can use dominoes to create the quantities determined by the constraint cube. There is a variety of activities that students can engage in on set of 6 think dot cards. A blank set of think dot cards is provided for the teacher to fill in as needed – for example – choosing particular problems from a set in a text.

There are many uses for glyphs. They are often used for students to share information about themselves. While the glyphs are being created, students are engaged with other topics such as counting, literacy, geometric shapes, etc. They are especially popular with elementary teachers. But they do have a place in the secondary grades. A traditional snowman glyph with secondary math legend and template is included as an example of an adaptation for high school from a primary level activity. Extending the idea of “reading” a glyph and connecting it to graphing functions creates some interesting and rich tasks for students. The following set of glyph templates can be used in centers or during instruction to help develop students’ observation skills, logical reasoning and problem solving skills and as formative assessment probes. There is one set with sunglasses or a blank set of circles to create faces and hair, etc. of choice. This resource is good for children with Dyslexia and language-based learning deficiencies.

Writing is one of the parts of language that students are still developing along with their reading, talking, and listening skills. For some students what they know about mathematics may exceed their ability to communicate it through the written word. Students learn to write by writing. Writing needs to be original thought, not just copying something that someone else wrote. As the teacher, providing an environment that is rich in mathematical language is a priority. Providing students a Journey’s Notebook, if for nothing else but the development of a Glossary and a Journal, offers a place where students can record their thoughts and experiences as it chronicles their growth over time while on their educational journey. Writing About can be a small group writing activity or an individual activity. This is a good activity for struggling students and ESL/ELL who may need some support in writing. Writing about this week’s topic provides students an opportunity to reflect on their work over the past week. Parents and caregivers find this very informative and it provides a way for them to stay in touch with what is happening in the classroom. This can also be used as a formative assessment probe for the student. This resource is good for children with Dyslexia and language-based learning deficiencies.

Writing is one of the parts of language that students are developing. For some students, ESL/ELL for example, what they know about a topic may exceed their ability to communicate it through the written word. Students learn to write by writing. Writing needs to be original thought, not just copying something that someone else wrote. Therefore it is imperative that opportunities are provided often for students to engage in writing about a variety of content. Students’ writing should make sense and be complete. Writing About offers a collaborative opportunity for small groups of students to work individually first to write about a concept and then to come together and putting their individual work into a paragraph about the topic. A word cloud of Earth's Systems associated words is given as a prompt for words and ideas. Facilitation notes are provided as well as student activity sheet. This is a good activity for struggling students and ESL/ELL who may need some support in writing. We'd like to hear about your experience with our resources.
