State testing is coming up soon and I am planning a "Math Bootcamp" for intensive review for our 5th grade team. What is one thing YOU would find valuable in this type of end-of-year review (games, strategies, etc.)?

Love it!! Thank you!!

One thing that I find valuable for in that type of end-of-year review is utilizing a variety of activities. One day can be for games. You could utilize other days for math stations. Another day could be a virtual activity day. I am doing something similar to what you are doing. I teach sixth grade math. Some of the online programs that I use automatically group students who are struggling on a particular topic. I pull those students for intensive instruction l. Also, I pull small groups of students during their elective classes. I group activities by domain as well. (NS, EE, G, RP, and SP)

Thoughts on Engage NY/Eureka math...

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?”

My district has finally gone 1-to-1. Is there a good app or website that I could use to have students submit answers anonymously while going over problems in class? I did this last week using Kahoot to go over a state testing review packet. It was great because I could see how many got the right answer and move on if no one missed the question. However, I would like to do it without having to create something in advance. I hope this doesn't sound confusing.

I’m preparing to teach division with decimals. Our math program doesn’t have manipulatives for the concrete representation. Suggestions how to have students understand dividing with/without decimals?

What would u do in this "hypothetical" scenario.
1. Student gets 95 percentile on standardized tests in 1st grade.
2. 2nd gr teacher, capable and flexible but a little old school.
3. Parent, from foreign country, wants us to teach 2 years ahead of where student is at in math and reading in case they have to return to other country.
4. District's old standard for acceleration is at the 97th+ percentile and other students are much more"advanced".
5. Parent wants detailed steps for teacher's plan
