Strategies for Math Mini-Posters... TGIF!
Good Evening All,
While Drew practiced football, I worked on this set of mini-posters for math strategies. They are a perfect fit above your white board and can be referred too quite easily!
This is a set of ten mini-posters with a math strategy for students to use as they employ the “Standards for Mathematical Practice” on each poster. These posters are perfect to place in a math classroom above the white board for easy reference. When students are stuck on a step in a math computational problem as well as a word problem, they can utilize these mini-posters with the strategies on bright colored paper for easy reference! A must for any math teacher!

Homework and Study Shortcut Strategies Training Slides...
Good Evening All,
I worked tonight on a quick powerpoint that you might use in several different ways... with students, other teachers, and parents... these strategies are proven to help win the homework war... especially with ADHD students...
This is a powerpoint for training and instructional purposes. You will find fourteen slides. Ten of these slides explain homework and study shortcuts that have been proven to be beneficial to upper elementary, middle school, high school, and college students. As well, these strategies have been found to be very helpful with students and adults diagnosed with ADHD. These slides can be used in a focused faculty session, professional development session, or a professional learning community session in working to develop these strategies among teachers to teach students. As well, these slides can be used in working to equip students with these strategies. Finally, these slides can be used in a "Parent University" atmosphere to provide parents with training on the strategies as well.
