After a successful circular of math STAR testing today, the 6th graders volition last dorsum at it tomorrow amongst about to a greater extent than functions! Here is what nosotros direct maintain inwards store for math workshop!
Teacher Center
At our instructor take in nosotros volition last focusing on taking a role from a table, writing it every bit an equation, together with and then beingness able to graph the equation using a t-chart. This lesson tin last a lot to accept inwards at first, thus nosotros are spending a minute twenty-four hours learning most how to create this! My students that already direct maintain got it downwards volition last working on the enrichment problems, which require them to piece of occupation amongst functions that are a fleck to a greater extent than complicated! Click on the film to honor a copy!
Homework Center
During the homework center, students volition direct maintain an assignment from our Math Connects textbook. This volition last about to a greater extent than practise taking a role from a table, writing an equation, together with graphing the equation on a coordinate plane. Like I said, this tin last a lot at foremost for 6th grade, thus this volition last an of import take in for students to practise what nosotros direct maintain simply covered at the instructor center! I give students the selection of 2 unlike assignments...A or B. Homework H5N1 is the "regular" homework together with homework B is a picayune to a greater extent than challenging. Students determine for themselves how they are feeling most a item lesson.
Problem Solving
Tomorrow nosotros volition last starting a novel Problem of the Month from the Inside Mathematics website. I've talked a lot most these before, but I direct maintain to country i time to a greater extent than how much I dearest these! Click the link or the film to honor out for yourself how corking they are! Tomorrow I am using the Growing Staircases problem. I impress off half-dozen of the problems on colored cardstock for each grouping to use, since at that topographic point is a maximum of half-dozen students working on it at whatsoever given fourth dimension during our math take in rotations.
Technology/Hands-on Center
At our technology/hands-on center, my 6th graders volition last playing a math review game that nosotros learned a few months agone at the commencement of our algebra units - Algebra Top-it. I created Algebra Top-it for students to practise substituting inwards a position out for a variable together with solving expressions. The game is like to the carte game War, even thus students take away to curlicue a move yesteryear away together with flip over a carte each round. After solving the human face using the position out they rolled for the variable, they encounter who has the greater solution. Winner gets the cards! Make certain y'all catch a copy! Or improve yet, follow my TPT store together with spider web log together with acquire i for costless (see the banner inwards my store for to a greater extent than info!).
Have a corking residual of your week! Can't believe it's almost Feb already!
