-Using terminology within the lessons allowed students to too.
-It was nice understanding the format this year, it allowed us to be more flexible bringing it into different parts of our day. Moving fluency to before snack, allowed for easier transition in the afternoon. 
-They don't have to master it the first time, you can feel comfortable moving on since they cycle back! You can feel good about the fact that they will understand it! ]]> 2019-05-13 12:54:33 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/359444006 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/359445806 -Within our math block, it would be nice to have more time for a small group, especially meeting the needs of those students right away.
-Assessments are too long and too difficult (not kid friendly).
-It would be nice for math I/E to be adjusted where it follows math a bit later in the day. ]]> 2019-05-13 12:57:34 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/359445806 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/359450401 -Use journals so it means more instead of white board and markers. Possibly make the journals by unit ahead of time to reduce glue sticks, scissors, etc.
-Start the routine more at the beginning of the year, so all components are met.  
-Find a way to ensure assessment is done effectively but isn't taking away from the time needed for instruction.]]> 2019-05-13 13:07:28 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/359450401 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/359452099 -More 3-D Shapes
-Triangle Pattern blocks]]> 2019-05-13 13:10:57 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/359452099 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361847618 Students did the exit ticket the next day as warm up so I could evaluate what/who needed more feedback. 
The repetition in the fluency, sprints and lessons was a huge improvement over EnVsion. 
The student application problems and all the lessons required much more thinking and active participation in the learning process. ]]> 2019-05-20 17:59:06 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361847618 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361848228 Math assessments in each unit were beyond the students' understanding from the concepts, routines and strategies practiced in the unit. The tests seemed to be a pre -test for the next unit because after the following unit was completed the majority of the objectives on the previous test had been explicitly taught.   
Playing more games to reinforce facts so the kids enjoy math. ]]> 2019-05-20 18:00:39 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361848228 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361849258 Add explicit lessons on telling time to the morning routines so it connects to our day to make it relevant and provide more practice. 
Hope to teach more of the Unit 6 lessons next year. ]]> 2019-05-20 18:02:59 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361849258 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361861462 None]]> 2019-05-20 18:26:03 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361861462 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361892363 -Meet with higher kids more consistently
-Create more of a guided math approach, infused with the curriculum and components we are currently using
-Math WIN group up and going
-Have a central parent location electronically for parents to access all things for all grades
-Have someone make all of the copies for us, preferably in the summer because we use so much aide time to make copies
-Tests are not always user-friendly- would be nicer to have larger font, boxes for questions, pictures, etc...]]> 2019-05-20 19:51:52 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361892363 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361894309 -We were surprised that with the set-up of the lessons and the cyclical nature that even our lowest learners were able to show proficiency in the standards/curriculum.
-Getting comfortable with not necessarily teaching to mastery right away. Was comforting knowing the kids got it once it cycled back.
-Efficient use of our math block- no down-time
-Kids feel really confident in math
-We feel like it's the best math curriculum that we have used and our kids have made the most gains using it]]> 2019-05-20 19:58:01 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361894309 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/361894527 -Add explicit lessons on telling time (more lessons to telling time to 5 minute) and counting money
-Finish the whole curriculum (helpful to have pacing guide)
-Starting Math IE

Kids like the fluency practices.
Good concept of number bonds.
Kids can recognize different styles of number sentences.
Tests from last year now make sense.
Kids can communicate mathematically better than before.
I feel that I can better pinpoint where my students deficiencies are

Would like to know what templates to use when...  sometimes you needed a sprint or template from an earlier lesson.
We wish the assessments weren't soooooooo long.
Add QR Codes to tests to have the questions read
Some of the tests have too many words, too many steps for early first graders. ]]> 2019-05-21 20:08:41 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/362310244 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/362314032 Get started sooner
Make sure I have the right copies
Continue to push through even when I feel like I should re-teach
Try to do the de-brief and the exit ticket with each lesson
Incorporate games at some point]]> 2019-05-21 20:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/362314032 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/362314829 Not that we know of... we'd like 3D, but we're okay with what we have!]]> 2019-05-21 20:24:34 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/362314829 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/362526121 *Kids can talk about how they can solve the problems .

* No math game time was very difficult.  We struggled with the structure and losing the "fun" of our math blocks. 
*Informal Assessment gave us more information than end of module test 
*Number formation was never hit.  We need to do more at the beginning of the year . 
*Rigor on 6 and 7 years olds :(]]> 2019-05-22 13:08:35 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/362526305 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/362526367 * Put our own style into the curriculum.   More guided math or math workshop .

*Differentiating instruction (small group time)
*End of module assessments not an accurate way of assessing those lower kids.  Not kid friendly, very wordy, so many pages, raises anxiety.  How can we change the assessments so we can make them more kid friendly and accurate? Reformat so it's less confusing and possibly in a 2 day format. ]]> 2019-05-24 12:49:53 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/363258829 https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/363259451 *Reaching the lower kids and tier I interventions. 
*How can we incorporate our AVMR training?
*How can we incorporate games in our math block?
*Guided math/small group instruction-how can we incorporate it into our math block?
*Extra time during core time using Zearn for higher kids and small group differentiation. ]]> 2019-05-24 12:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/aadamus/6ljze80jhshl/wish/363259451
