Due to a wide variety of things outside of my control, I will be leaving my nontraditional STEM classroom and stepping back into the world of general mathematics. Starting in the 2017-2018 school year I will be teaching 90 minute periods of Math 7 and Accelerated Math 7. I am looking forward to developing a new routine/schedule for my day. Previously I taught 44 minute class periods for both math and then STEM. Having 90 minutes to complete warm-ups, notes, independent practice, games & activities, and exit tickets is a DREAM! I am in love with the sample block schedules from MathGiraffe. I plan on taking quite a bit of time this summer to organize my units in such a way to follow her suggested schedules. (As well as review and adjust my games and activities, create new foldables, and review trinomials.)
I will try to keep you posted on my new adventure into 7th grade mathematics.
