We work very hard to do what is best for these students. It is exhausting and frustrating to constantly be undermined by administrative policies that push these students through the system. We deal with a lot of cheating, behavioral issues, and some teachers/parents doing homework for their students just so they can pass the class. We are all failing our students! How can we work together to correct all of the wrongs and make them right?

I feel for you on this topic as well. I struggle as well especially with the cheating and some behavioral issues in class.

Edcite can help you to solve cheating issues. But teacher need to create questions in it. Last year I tried, it worked and my students got scared and started to prepare for Algebra-1 exam and they have shown growth.

I can definitely understand where you’re coming from. I experience these same issues. I do have a suggestion if you’re teach in person. Have students complete all assignments in class. No assignments can be completed at home. This could be one way that you can truly see if your students know what they are supposed to know.

Few students do work even if the are in the room. We have been encouraged no to give work. Sad.

Does anyone know a great 7th grade math workbook? Our school system does not buy the students books.

I feel like I’ve spent so much money on Amazon and TPT but it never ends up being what I want. It’s usually too easy. I would be grateful for any ideas, suggestions or actual workbooks names. Thanks.

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 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.

I found using GoFormative’s free version to be very helpful in teaching new topics to my students. I embed videos I make demonstrating how to complete a question, next I ask them to complete an example showing work, and then the next question they type their answer so it automatically alerts them to see if they answered correctly. It can be used live in a meet and on an independent virtual day. In my google meets, I’m able to give feedback on any question they have trouble with in real time.
