What's your best strategy for engaging a student who's trying to check out on math? This student did super well in 4th & 5th grade math, stumbled a bit in 6th and is now in my class (7th) and is almost totally checked out. Quarantine obviously didn't help. Everything I've tried so far has been totally rebuffed, he's 12.

Thoughts on Engage NY/Eureka math...

I teach 3rd grade Math. I am looking for ideas for math centers, that focus on fact fluency.

So I’ve taught middle school and now I’m thinking I want to make the switch to high school. Those that have gone from middle to high school, how has that change been for you? Especially those in Alabama, did you have get additional certification? My license says 4-8 math, algebra and geometry

Anyone have some successful math performance task ideas to share? I need a few more creative ideas for my Algebra 1 Curriculum.

What’s your opinion on math homework? I teach 4th grade and have always given it but I’d like to see what others do and weigh out if it’s really worth it. If I give it, I feel like I should spend class time going over it but on the other hand I stress myself out trying to keep the absent work organized and those that don’t even do the work.

Any good outside activities (math related) that I can do? I have Nerf guns and remote control cars I could use.

Does anyone else use Illustrative Math in 6th grade? I have a spread sheet of resources I can share if others can do the same!

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?”

Anyone out there use Assistments? If so, what has your experience been?

Does anyone else have to wait until they have all assignments turned in for the day to start grading? I have Geom classes in the a.m. and p.m. and my OCD doesn’t let me grade as they are turned in.

Good ideas for teaching subtraction across zeros? I teach 3rd grade. Are there videos out there? The students struggle with subtraction all together.
