UDL Practices in the Math Classroom by

I use the thinking classroom by Peter, love this resource and the notion of getting students up and moving while solving mathematical prompts.

In small groups, ask students to show and explain their solution to a problem.

Math Mastery Approach where we have students try out the classroom, I teach the concept, guided practice and then move on to independent work

Pre-assessment, math games, Splat, conferencing, manipulatives, muli-modal

I like to make activities hands-on as much as possible. They can also show solutions using manipulatives, whiteboards or talking about them.

In a kindergarten classroom, I use our open play time after a math lesson. We set up specific open ended math activities and observe/engage.

hands-on activities, flexible groups, song, movement break, games, read aloud books

I use a variety of strategies in the classrooms I service. One strategy I always use is allowing students to come to the whiteboard or use Math Mats to share and to document their thinking. This validates students strategies and ideas and allows myself to see where students are coming from and what skills they have.

I love letting children explain their thinking out loud. It's great for them to hear how others may have arrived at the same answer, but with different reasoning.

In the last three years of teaching grade 5/6, I've been trying to implement the Thinking Classrooms approach by Peter.

We use the vertical non-permanent surfaces to solve our problems of most lessons. Students are assigned random groupings and are asked to each contribute to writing their solutions on the whiteboards.

Teaching a grade 5/6 split, I often consolidate from the bottom.
