Day 39... Whip Around

I wish I had a photo for today but I don't.  We spent time today reviewing for a quiz,  and one strategy we used was a Whip Around.   I gave the students one minute to look over their notes and come up with one statement about something they've learned.   Then we made a large circle around the room and one by one,  we shared out. 

Day 38... Ogives

I'm failing at the photos this week!  Today we learned about ogives, which isn't the most exciting topic in general.   I need to figure out how to spice it up next year. ..

Day 37... Sub Plans

Today I had to be out for training on our 1:1 initiative,  so I tried something new for my sub plans.   Each table has a folder with the handouts and I've used my acrylic frames to post the instructions.   So far,  I love this idea!  :)

Day 36.. Modified AP problems

We whiteboarded our warmup problem today,  which was a modified AP problem.   My students really struggled with part of it,  but I think there were some valuable discussions happening.  At least I hope so!

Day 35... One Good Thing

Inspired by a friend of mine,  I decided to try "One Good Thing" with my classes today.   I loved it!   :)  Also,  a bonus picture of a student today using thinking skills to find the median of a histogram.  I love laminated cards!

Day 34... Matching graphs

This matching card activity is one of my favorites.   I love hearing the strategies kids use to match histograms,  boxplots, and summary statistics!

Day 33... Whoops!

Move along. . There's nothing to see here.

I forgot to take a picture :(
