Congratulations! What grade were you in before? I teach 7th grade math, and I’ve taught a little 6th grade before. Let me know if you’d like to chat about it! Especially now, I love learning more about what people are doing in there classrooms!

Well, I will be student teaching so the post is kind of misleading.😅 I’m currently a middle school para-educator finishing up my degree to become a teacher! However I am still open for a chat if you are . I’m sure I’ll have questions and other things to share.

Congrats. You will love 6th grade❤️. Do you know your curriculum yet? What's making you most anxious?

I am most anxious about how to get students to see that we are all capable to do math and it’s not just for “math people.”

I’m teaching summer school at a high school, and the co-principals have asked me to focus on only 2 to 3 chapters worth (what they are calling “2-3 standards” in the eight days of summer semesters. However, they are also asking me to give kids the midterm and/or final at the end of each period, which covers 4-5 chapters each semester. My question is this: “Is it legal by California Ed code for the administration to ask me to teach less than each entire semester, yet test each whole semester?”

I finally was able to convince my principal that we need a consistent math intervention at the MS level (grades 5-8). (Right now, we are just "doing our own thing," which isn't helping students progress much.) Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be beneficial to have some sort of progress monitoring tool as part of the program, if possible. Our classes run roughly 55 minutes (which is too long for an intervention, in my humble opinion).

Thanks for any advice.
