Math Workshop Model: students will rotate through 3 math stations 

Teacher Table:

  • During this time, students work with the teacher in a small group to focus on the learning target. The teacher will be able to differentiate the activities for different levels of learners and provide more individual assistance.   

Hands on:

  • During this time the students will work with manipulatives on a math task. The task may have a focus on what we are currently learning or a previously learned concept. This station can vary from working independently, with a partner, or with their group. 

Technology:

  • During this time, the students will work individually on their chromebooks on a math application (iready math, xtra math, or 99math)
