Students will be provided with a tremendous amount of support as they learn these new skills. There are supplemental handouts and activities for every chapter that enable students to really master each mathematical concept covered.

Aside from the support that is offered, students will have hands-on experiences in nearly every lesson taught! I truly believe that students learn best by doing. We will also have some practice with real-life applications of our new-found math knowledge!

3P's Daily Math Routine:

Part 1 - Teaching a New Topic

Math begins at 12:45 each day. We begin by reading the daily goal/objective. A new math skill is modeled and students are given the opportunity to practice this skill in their table groups.

Part 2 - Individualized Work Time

Once the new skill is introduced, students break up into math teams. Math teams consist of 2-4 students who are working on similar levels. These math teams are given re-teach, skills practice, and enrichment handouts to complete. As students work, I check in with groups to answer questions and work out "tricky" problems.

Part 3 - Wrap Up

Once our bell rings, students return to their seats. We quickly review answers to the "skills practice" page that all students completed. Students are then given the opportunity to use higher-level thinking to relate the new skill to their real life.
