![]() For example, on Monday you might spend 15 minutes really going over the skills and work. This gives me a little more flexibility in finding a chunk of time for the discussion.Īnother possibility is changing it up throughout the week. I know it’s hard, but it’s so worth it! I like having students do the math review as morning work but then go over it later in the day. Solution: Include time for going over the work! If I’d made a point to teach him the correct way sooner, he could have been practicing the RIGHT process all that time! Oops. Each week, he did the review problems the same way, practicing the WRONG process, never realizing it. For example, one student was confused about borrowing in the subtraction algorithm. Unfortunately, many of them were practicing bad habits and reinforcing misconceptions. I felt good because the kids were practicing all their math skills. At the end of the week, I’d double-check that the work was complete and maybe spot-check a few problems. The students did the work and put it away and that was it. We’re all pressed for time and I know that for many years I included a daily math review as morning work. Problem: When you don’t go over the math review work, you’re reinforcing bad habits and misconceptions. ![]() If you’re spiraling weekly, you should be able to bring up the same concepts again each month, giving students the ongoing refreshers they need.įAIL BIG Strategy #2: Don’t go over the work (ever). Now you can review, reteach as needed, and allow students time to PRACTICE their newly refined learning. You might choose 3 – 5 focus skills each week. This one is so easy to fix! Just make sure you stick with a set of skills for at least a week at a time. Solution: Spiral through skills weekly rather than daily. But the next day you’re on to other skills so there’s no chance for those kids to try again and practice the right way! If you spiral too quickly (daily), all you do is reinforce what kids already know and do, be it right or wrong. And maybe they hear how to do it properly. The ones that don’t know how to do it find out the opposite. The ones who already know how to do it are reminded that they know how to do it. Let’s say on Monday, students do a perimeter problem. ![]() Think about it… A lot of those daily math review resources spiral through skills quickly, reviewing new concepts each day. Problem: Practicing different skills every single day denies students the chance to build on previous learning.
