First of all in my classroom, the children arrive and have to complete a math activity first thing in the morning........
In my class room children can olve the number activity such as size (mini, small, medium, large, oversized, giant) and shape (triangle,circle, rectangle, square,) and complete addition/subtraction facts using these hands-on with the help of chart and can't wait to solve the morning math activity of the day !!!!
I have created addition/subtraction story problems for each day of the school year for students to solve on the smart activity notebook. the children "see" the maths problem come to life as we manipulate the pictures on the board together.
I also have an cartoon character in my room. This amazing tool hav given me the capability of having the students explain their lesson and how they obtained an answer. The students love being the teacher ! This activity has enhanced students' understanding of many maths concepts.
These teaching learning materials and technology in all aspects of carriculum has allowed me to meet the different learning style of many students.
I know it's working and i watched my students continue to develop higher level thinking skills each day in my classroom.
Thanks
