In my early years of teaching, I didn't always know what to say when students told me they didn't have time to do their homework (other than something like, "You must have had some time between 4:00 and 9:00!). There were all kinds of reasons - they had sports practice or a lesson, or they had to go to their brother's or sister's game/practice/event of some kind; or their parents took them shopping or out to eat. At that time I had one child (who was 2 when I started teaching), so I didn't have the experience from a parent's point of view of making sure I was getting my kids to their activiti ..read more

An extension for students who finish early - ask them to "create" a bracelet that will cost a specific dollar amount.

This week's math dates are pictured here!

If you have trouble reading the dates here on the blog, you can also find them on my Instagram and Facebook accounts.
