Check out these tips from Prodigy.]]> 2018-10-24 10:37:56 UTC https://padlet.com/knauerr/6g3rhohdrupi/wish/296358965 https://padlet.com/knauerr/6g3rhohdrupi/wish/296359321 To help reach the unique needs of students, Roberta Predovich (5th grade at Elmwood) created this Math Menu activity. The menu gives students the autonomy to choose appropriate math activities and track their progress throughout each Go Math! lesson. I especially love the Check for Understanding chart. Students are able to communicate their needs clearly and easily with each lesson. Feel free to use the templates below to make your own Math Menu. ]]> 2018-10-24 10:39:34 UTC https://padlet.com/knauerr/6g3rhohdrupi/wish/296359321 jamiekanas https://padlet.com/knauerr/6g3rhohdrupi/wish/297565315 One idea for differentiation for your stronger writer is to have pre-ready labels made with short tasks: "Find three words and replace them with more interesting words", "Find 2 places where you can add a vivid verb", "Add action before or after your dialogue"...etc. If students are done with their writing, you can put a quick label on their paper to keep moving them forward. ]]> 2018-10-26 19:48:33 UTC https://padlet.com/knauerr/6g3rhohdrupi/wish/297565315 knauerr https://padlet.com/knauerr/6g3rhohdrupi/wish/335909308 Lauren Feiereisel's students wanted to create a math resource bin. 
In response, she created flippable rings with 5th grade math strategies, separated by skill.

Lauren responded by creating resource rings. These are physical cards on a ring with the 5th grade math skills the students have learned so far sorted by skill and color.
