Feature Friday: Sawdust and Paper Scraps
Don't let the date fool you. The great ideas in this shop are timeless.
I don't have to tell you that this school year is going to be unlike any other. This year, it's not only wise to establish a space inside the home that's a suitable study environment, it's essential. Without an efficient place to do homework, kids can struggle to focus, can lack the motivation to attend to their work, and can be prone to household distractions. They can also, in reaction to insufficient workspaces, develop exceedingly strange study practices which will raise eyebrows for the remainder of their existence. The habit of working on the floor, as there was no other

I can't get my mind off math now that I'm reading this book, I even dreamed about setting up stations last night! It's way too early in the summer to start having school dreams!! Mrs. Parker is facilitating discussions on Chapter 3 of Debbie Diller's Math Work Stations - all about setting up stations and getting started. I've used Daily 5 for literacy stations for the past two or three years so I plan on using that format to introduce, model, model, model, create anchor charts, allow for practice, then reflect with the kids on what went well and what we need to work on. I also want to have some kids demonstrate the "wrong" way to work in stations. Here's an achor chart format I made (click to download). This is pretty much what I use for my literacy stations too (minus the stamina graph). Just list (or have the kids give suggestions) for what students are expected to do and what the teacher is expected to do. I've also been thinking about how to map out my math time. I get 60 minutes for math but I think I'll be able to steal another 15 minutes. So I'm planning 30 minutes for whole group that would include calendar, routines, and a lesson. The next 45 minutes would be math stations and small groups. I'd love to pull 3 small groups for 15 minutes each (ideally I can have only three groups, this may mean as many as 7 kids in a group though) and have my kids go to my group plus two 15 minute stations. Here's the rotation I made. I wrote that every child would go to a "Fact Practice" station each day. We have really been trying to focus on building fact fluency so this would be an addition or subtraction station based on their needs. And finally, I think I've shared my blank lesson plan page for math workshop before but I made a few small changes. Click Mrs. Parker's button to read her post and link up with your ideas. I love all the sharing going on!
