I like how you:

T: Use cpdd cards to play snap game, and students can automatically lay out the cards, knowing what to do. I am also impressed with how you using blooklet to assess and check on students learning for bar graphs - a fun way to observe data. Students' maths journals are also written with notes and learnings!

A: How do you pair the students? (answered: intentional pairing)

G: Agree with Fronia, sometimes, the students will surprise us with what they know or have learnt previously/ daily lives as well as from their tuition. Good to let go a little (reminder for myself as well) and hear from them. Similarly, extension can also be done through students' responses - a lot of opportunities for What If.

Jia you! Great job for a "first-timer!"

I also like the self created self checklist.

How do you make it fun for your students? Any games that was introduced to the students so that they can play the games introduced during their recess or free time.

You might want to extend the use of these factual cards to get students to develop games and allow them to create games for their peers.

I enjoy your work because I feel inspired when you shared on using the Math Journal to get students to be creative in expressing their thoughts on what they had learnt. 😊

ASK

I am wondering about the use of whiteboard to teach.

What were the challenges that you faced?

GIVE

You might want to consider getting students to record their thinking processes on SLS apart from recording a video.

I like the idea of Peer Tutoring. It is quite encouraging to see how the students help one another. With Peer Tutoring, it helps teacher to have more "eyes" to help the weaker ones.

Ask:

How do you ensure that students used a consistent method and their peers to enable them to regulate thinking when during algorithm?

Give:

Get students to a chance to present their workings or thinking! :D

I like pairing up students to do peer tutoring.

The filler activity is good. I will do that with my students soon.

A: do u provide detailed feedback for all the long division mistakes ? I find it a challenge sometimes cuz there were soooo many qns in wb 🥲🥲 so I just circle the mistakes for MP and LP don’t circle for HP (just mark cross haha) i will try harder.

G: maybe can use existing qns to do peer tutoring ( save abit of time) so I got my “division masters” to adopt some Tutees to cross check their ans to the workbook ws n the masters can teach while the rest of the MP work on the multiplication drill practices

I like that you got the same type of book for journaling for the whole class. I thought that it was a great start for a structure to take place for journaling – a uniform book.

I enjoyed listening on how you planned every journal entry was expected to be like. That keeps students on track as they jot down their responses.

ASK

I am curious about the frequency on the use of Blooket.

Is there a routine to have it?

Or carried out by topic?

GIVE

I think your next step is to keep doing what you have been doing.

I am inspired by your sharing on your students’ learning in action! 😊

So proud of you, Diana! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I liked the way you stretch your students in metacognition.

Qn: I can see that your questioning technique is rather high level. How do you respond to the weaker progress students?

I’m sure your kids will be motivated to learn Math under your care:)

Great efforts to include e-ped^^

Very encouraging!

I will adopt your fractions visual idea!

Worksheets: I learnt that having the small squares allow students to know where to write the digits neatly.

Affirmation: You modelled the way for affirming your students. Thank you for this. I feel so encouraged to try to do more for my class too:) The feedback

A - How often do u get them to reflect? Good that you focus on process / progress rather than results!

Ans by Naf: Once a term

G - Good to get students to review their journals from T1 to see how much they have improved / changed over the terms.

Affirmation by peers - can consider levelling up students by providing sentence starters on why they like their friends work: is it handwriting? is it presentation?

There is so much positivity in doing Math when we get the students to affirm themselves!

So much effort! 💯

I wonder how you manage to do so much when you are only their Math teacher. Keep up the excellent work!

..

Get to the point.

Be selective about what to focus on.

Ask: How will you get the kids to keep the notes?

Beautiful work pieces by your students!

A: Do you get your students to copy down the important notes/ annotations?

Do you see a difference in teaching when teaching the 2021 & 2013 syllabus?

G: Want to consider capturing all your coloured papers into a book / journal? Or put them into a clear folder.

How do you find time for the real weak students? (she answered how she help them during recess).

Thank you for sharing :)

Hands-on experience: Power! Its a life lesson for your students! Making learning math relevant to the students. There is so much hands-on experience for your students.

Annotation: I loved that this skill is taught to the students - that will impact the students for life.

Here is my deck of slides shared today. For your reference. 😊

Math Journal- I like your effort on Math Journal.

Thank you for the effort.

I like how you got your students to discover more about Math by getting them to think and express their thoughts through concept maps. 👍🏼

ASK

I am wondering about what other ways can we get students especially low progress students to build self-awareness on their thinking processes. 💭

GIVE

You might want to explore metacognition using Padlet. 😊

I like how you captured key points of every Math topic and zeroed in on explicit teaching. I like! 👍🏼

ASK

How did you get students to file their hands-on work?

GIVE

One suggestion would be to get students to staple their hands-on work in Math Journal. This serves as a compilation of their learning in Math. 😊

The Math Journal book shows a lot of creativity given to students to show their understanding in their own way. Combining artwork using only parallel and perpendicular lines to form unique art work!

Use of ClassPoint where students label parallel and perpendicular lines, nice!

Good use of tb qn by modifying the qn.

Good use of real building to teach parallel and perpendicular lines

Use of journal to write down key concept

Use of concept to create a story.

Story of parallel lines.

Feedback - skills are printed and tr just need to tick.

Loved the many activities where Math comes ALIVE in your class. You have brought math learning to be very creative.

Mrs Toh's feedback is alot of hardwork and I am sure the parents will appreciate that

A: What about the decimals on the labels?

G: Great to share with teachers! Interested to see parent's response!

Ask: it seemed like there’s a lot of time invested in doing activities. How do you manage workbook, school worksheets and these activities?

Give: great job!

You inserted many fun and interesting games. There are so many online math tools for us to explore. Thankful for your sharing! Definitely very helpful for the teachers.

Good link to real-life context!

Perhaps we can have a library of those tools and share with the entire school!

-Good sharing of interactive thinking tools.

• good use of platform to let children to learn in a fun way.

Thank you for the sharing. I will try out some of the activities you shared.

Thank you for sharing so many ICT links that can be used for different topics.

I have benefited the use of acronyms in my lessons. 3R6 has also benefited.

A: How was it different as compared to teaching upper Pri?

G: P2 would have some estimation questions in Length, Mass, Volume topical WS. Would be a good link from p2 to P3. Missing gaps would be from P4 - P5. The next time we test them will be P6.

I like how you created plenty of fun hands-on activities for every chapter. 👍🏼

I am interested to get the Math stamp!

ASK

How often did you use ClassPoint? How about the use of Padlet?

GIVE

One suggestion to affirm your students' work is to put them up on the class Math noticeboard. That will inspire the rest! 😊

I like how you use Discussion tool on SLS to collate students' responses in an organised manner.

Prior to this, I had been using ITT to post discussion topics. This is something that I would like to try.

ASK

I like how you created acronyms for your students to understand better.

How effective was this for the Middle and Low Progress learners? Did it help?

GIVE

You shared websites in making learning exciting for students.

We would appreciate that these links are compiled for level teachers' use for future reference. It will be helpful! 😊
